Dave, I wonder if the problem had anything to do with the AGC SLP? Mine was at 10. Very strong signals seemed to cause some high pitch distortion. I changed it to 12. It seemed to help. I hear some have gone to 15. But I thought that was flat topping the AGC too much. N2TK, Tony

There have been a few postings over the last two days complaining of ssb splatter on receive with the K3 during the WPXSSB contest. I operated during that contest with my TS-850's and found generally that the bands were extremely crowded, and there were definitely some stations with broad signals. However, I am particularly concerned about the comments from the ham who said he preferred his TS-930 over the K3 on SSB. The question I have is "What is the effective shape factor of the K3 DSP?" Is it much steeper than the 1.5 - 2.0 shape factors of the roofing filters, such that DSP attenuation predominates? Or, is it less than 2:1, and off-frequency, the roofing filter predominates? Maybe the DSP shape factor varies as a function of bandwidth? I've done a Nabble search and searched the Elecraft Web site, but didn't find an answer. Maybe some smart person can fill me in. Thanks!
