This is a short clip preparing the Icom 7000 for a contest. I'm going through the menu to record my voice. I record a CQ message, exchange and 73 message.
I usually only send the CQ message when things get slow and I get tired of calling CQ in the contest. The other recorded messages are there for, "just in case" I decide to play with them. I like experimenting. (The recorded exchange may change too once I hear what others are transmitting.)
One thing that's not in the video is the last item to do and that's setting the transmit level. Before adjusting the transmit level I had to back out of the menu and change the meter to function on ALC so when transmitting my recording I could adjust the transmit level to an acceptable ALC level. I'll put the document up on my Goggle share drive. Please refer to it regarding the complete procedure. It's only 4 pages from the manual for your convenience. See link below:

We are camping just north of Parker Arizona and have had some beautiful weather. By week, I mean myself and Mr. B. Mr. B is my travel companion and confidant. Check out this video using a VR headset and you will be amazed.

Among amateur radio operators, the Icom 7610 and Elecraft K3S radios stand out as popular choices, renowned for their superior performance and advanced features. Despite their impressive attributes, these radios can be further optimized by adjusting their SSB listening receiver settings. Join me and comment with your techniques aimed at enhancing the listening capabilities of either transceiver.

I was operating on 20, 40 and 30 Meters while camping and running my Elecraft KX2 using CW. On Thursday morning I operated on 75 Meters using the Kenwood TS-480 HX and my Scorpion antenna with the new top hat.
The Black Fox Campground has nine camp sites. Restroom facilities are available. The campground is in a remote location within a spruce forest on South Fork Rapid Creek. The Black Fox Botanical Area is adjacent to the campground. A snowmobile trail with a warming hut is available. The campground is popular on weekends.

Comparing the audio quality and signal strength with a fixed filter bandwidth of 2.4 kHz and the absence of receiver equalization in the Elecraft K3S is an interesting approach.
In this setup, you can observe how the two receivers handle signals within that specific bandwidth and whether there are any noticeable differences in audio quality and signal strength between the Icom IC-7300 and the Elecraft K3S. It would be intriguing to explore the sensitivity, selectivity, and overall performance of each receiver under these conditions.
By using the same antenna and alternating between the Icom IC-7300 and the Elecraft K3S with a coax switch, you eliminate any potential variations introduced by the antenna system.
This method allows you to directly compare the audio quality and signal strength of the two receivers under similar conditions. You can listen to signals and evaluate the clarity, fidelity, and overall sound quality on each receiver. Additionally, you can assess the signal strength meter readings to compare the sensitivity and selectivity of the radios.
By carefully conducting this comparison, you can gain insights into the performance differences between the Icom IC-7300 and the Elecraft K3S in terms of audio quality and signal strength. It's a valuable demonstration that can help users make informed decisions based on their specific requirements and preferences.
