I have been using my KX3 with digital software and seem to have some odd 
behavior using the PBT.  I have it set to do upper cutoff/lower cutoff on USB 
or LSB and am watching the received display on the waterfall.  As expected, the 
upper cutoff in the noise follows the cutoff displayed on the screen, up to a 
point.

However, if I lower the cutoff below 2.35 kHz, there is an additional dead zone 
(no noise on the display) from 1.4 kHz to 1.6 kHz.   The same thing happens on 
LSU at 2.45 kHz.   This appears no matter what band I am on, so I assume it is 
something in the DSP software.

No such dead zone appears if I raise the lower cutoff.


I am using MCU 1.36 and DSP 1.05.

Has anyone else observed this?
