What roofing filter are you using? If it is an Elecraft 5-pole filter is the the offset properly set? Are you using the K3's Dual PB filter? Remember, the K3's DSP filters have very steep skirts. The selectivity in most other rigs is entirely related to the skirts of the IF filters; the filters in other "modern" DSP based are much "softer" and tend to emulated the 1;8:1 - 2.2:1 shape factor (depending on bandwidth) of the crystal filters. "Ringing" tends to be directly related to the nature of the filter in the area of the "knee" and once the bandwidth is less than 450 Hz the knee is impacting the keying sidebands. 73, ...
