For a couple of years now, since getting K3 #145, I've had the impression that activity in the big contests like CQWW has been dropping off because now I don't seem to have problems finding a run frequency. Obviously it's all down to the K3........:-)
Ref key clicks.....(bear with me!) I have relations who fish langoustine off north west Scotland in an area used as a 'testing site' for the Royal Navy nuclear submarine fleet. Here they analyse the sound spectrum emitted by new or serviced engines so they can adjust the onboard system which emits anti-phase sound to cancel the engine noise and so make them silent to other vessels nearby. So I wonder if it might be feasible to develop a system on the K3 to use the 2nd rx to listen to the offending signal and the software produce an anti-phase 'key click' in the main receiving bandwidth to cancel the clicks...? Just an idle thought while the coffee is brewing..... 73, Stewart Rolfe, GW0ETF (GW6W in cqww..)
