There's a sweet spot for ssb contesting with DSP width = 1.8 and shift FC = 1.1 You can even go down to width = 1.5 if the going gets really rough. I have the 1.8 filter, but I can't hear any major difference when it switches in. The DSP filter has narrower skirts than the crystal filter. The

Interesting weekend. First time I've had strong enough signals at the K3 that I felt like I was pushing it at all. I have my K3 configured with only a 250 Hz for extra filters, ridiculously narrow for everyday CW, great in a contest! I have no other SSB filters. With CW I have noticed that se

Allan, Set the 10 meter bandpass filter to peak on 28400 rather than the 28200 suggested in the manual and you will likely have more 10 meter coverage. Note that the 10 meter band specification for the K2 is from 28.0 to 28.8 MHz, so do expect output to fall off above that frequency. 73, Don
