Re: [Elecraft] K3 APF Adjustable Q [END of Threads]
As per Wayne's last email, we've settled on the initial features of the APF and will be putting up a public Beta of the code this week. Stay tuned! Let's table the discussion of Adjustable Q, and other APF feature pro/cons for now in the interest of reducing list email overload for others :-) We'll reopen this once the beta is out. If you are one of those in the APF alpha test group, feel free to still post comments on your use of APF etc. 73, Eric WA6HHQ Elecraft List Moderator --- Go Giants! http://sanfrancisco.giants.mlb.com --- __ 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
Re: [Elecraft] K3 APF Adjustable Q [END of Threads]
I can't resist this. This weekend I heard a big pileup on 9X0SP but I could barely hear the 9X station. With the APF he was solid copy. I worked him on the second call with my 100w K3, thanks to these two factors: 1) The APF which let me copy him. 2) The P3, which let me see the signal of the last guy he worked, which was in an unexpected place. When I called him, my not-so-strong signal was alone and right where it needed to be!

He was only an occasional ping in the noise without the APF but perfectly Q5 for well over an hour with the APF engaged. With my 30 foot high Windom and barefoot K3, I did not stand a chance of working him but the benefit of the existing APF is night and day. 73, ...

This is a real problem. Now I can hear more stations that can't hear me with my PW signal :.( Barry W2UP Joe Subich, W4TV-4 wrote: I listened to XV2RZ for quite a while last night on 20 meters.
