Hi Ken,

For narrow DSP filter bandwidths (100 Hz or less I think) you have the 
option of using a FIR filter (default) or an IIR filter.  IIR filters 
can "ring" which sounds like it might be what you are experiencing.  
That may be your problem - that you are using an IIR filter.  You can 
toggle between the FIR and IIR filters by a CONFIG command; CONFIG->FLx 
BW  (then tap 7).  (See page 55 of the K3 manual under FLx BW.)    Hope 
that helps.
