Hi Bob, The KX2's RF band-pass filters cover all popular SWL bands. You can use direct frequency entry to jump to specific frequencies, or just tune the VFO. It can copy AM signals in either AM or SSB modes. Use the FIL switch to adjust the audio passband.
You may want to set the VFO tuning rate (MENU:VFO CRS) to 5 or 10 kHz in AM mode. The KX2 also includes 100 frequency memories (with 5 character labels), 4 per-band memories, scanning, and channel hopping within grouped memories. All of these can be useful for general coverage. Refer to the owner's manual. Another feature unique is stereo audio. If you have AFX MD turned on, and you're using headphones or two external powered speakers, you'll get simulated stereo, which can be more pleasing to listen to than mono. The KX3 and K3S share all of the above features. 73, Wayne N6KR > On Sep 29, 2019, at 8:51 AM, Bob Conder via Elecraft > <elecraft@mailman.qth.net> wrote: > > Really basic question: what's the best way to set up the KX2 as a general > coverage receiver?TNX de K4RLC Bob ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
