Agree with the chain statement, Bob, and audio-wise my ears are the weakest link: Deaf in one for 48 years and need a hearing aid in the other now. So improving the K3's audio would not address my weakest link :-) That may be true of other hams in my age group (here, pushing 79) as well.

To me the audio enhancement for the K3S is expected to be a nice improvement. Historically some have expressed previous concerns regarding K3 audio quality, stating it was noted to be "fatiguing". I had available at my disposal a K3/10 and later a K3/100 the result of being asked to assemble those for folks that didn't feel qualified to do so. I agree, the audio, compared to other radios, seemed to be "strained". With the published information regarding the K3S and its enhanced audio features, this sure looks like a nice forward step on behalf of Elecraft.

I'm waiting on my K3S to arrive and I'll add, I'm coming from a long line of another brand of radio that is noted to have great audio quality.

To explain it another way.........The strength of a chain is defined by its weakest link.
