[Elecraft] Need advice for K3 and RX BC AM

2012-03-12 Thread Jo, YC0LOW
My Elecraft K3 has no AM filters installed. I tried to RX AM broadcast
stations on MW band but had no success.
I'd be grateful if you could advice me to add it on, or, is there a way to
do it as is, now pse?
I need it as features to check the 160m RX antenna directions in the coming
YB8Y DXpedition (OC-221, GL PI64mh) starts in March 20th. 2012 .

Tnx es 73 de Jo, YC0LOW

Jo,

Without adding the 6 kHz or 13 kHz filter, AM reception may be done 
using the 2.7 (or 2.8) kHz filter for Synchronous AM reception.  That 
gives you a full 2.7 kHz audio width instead of constraining it to half 
that width when using regular AM demodulation.

73,
Don W3FPR
