Lyle, You mention setting Rx equalization to flat for data modes. I set up RxEQ to make the waterfall uniform, flattening the slight residual spectrum colorization left over from roofing filter not quite being flat. It appears to work okay but now I wonder if I am helping or hurting the data decoding situation. It sure makes the waterfall look uniform.
If what you say is true, it would be nice to have mode specific RxEQ and TxEQ, different for the wider band modes anyway = AM/FM/USB/LSB/Data/Data Reverse. I need a sticky note to record the different settings to flatten the background noise the way we are now. If the K3 Utility were modified to make EQ easy to change (like the Filter Configuration Utility) it would be almost as useful and save K3 memory.

RxEQ should be set to flat, and if using DATA A mode then TxEQ should also be set to flat. 73, Lyle KK7P _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
