Hi, If you have an older hearing test, use the most recent one, and see what part of the audio spectrum you hear best at, within the allowed spectrum of the K3. Then select that frequency. I had a hearing test, and the best frequency was several hundred HZ away from my optimum, and many db away as well. After changing it, I copy CW much better. -- Thanks and 73's, For equipment, and software setups and reviews see: www.nk7z.net for MixW support see; http://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/mixw/info for Dopplergram information see: http://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/dopplergram/info for MM-SSTV see: http://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/MM-SSTV/info
