Well I'm not talking about speakers specifically. Just the the motivation for wideband audio response in general, i.e. ESSB and so on. As I've said before, the primary reason I don't use the voice modes is that it's like trying to have a relaxing talk to a friend at a basketball game. It's fine when the band isn't crowded, but as soon as someone starts butting in 1 kc above or below you, the last thing, seems to me, that you want is the other stations using wideband, hi-fi audio. I thought that was what a traditional narrow communications freq. response was for.
I understand the motivation for low distortion (I have some hearing damage from years as a musician), tho. And I did order a mic with my K3 for testing purposes (i.e. to make sure the mic inputs worked, I think the K3 will be my first rig with an actual working audio section hi hi) and the audio in the monitor sure enough sounds very clean. I guess that's what I love about digital and CW. You're not stuck with nearly as much QRM especially with rigs like the K2 and K3 where you can just squeeze the other signals out as much as you want. Oh well, I was just curious, mostly because of my unfamiliarity with the voice modes, I suppose. 73, LS W5QD -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Ten-Tec-never-sounded-so-good-tp4903799p4905156.html Sent from the [K3] mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
