Looks like it was my mistake I could have swore that the DSP was
being loaded the first time. I went back to the previous firmware and

Hi all,
Out of interest I thought I would try the new feature. I only have the
2.7kHz filter but people noticed the difference when I swtched. I did

You have to use the 6 KHz filter for TX on ESSB. You're TX is
probably restricted on audio bandwidth with the 2.7 filter.
From hfnotes.rtf for 2.23:
* ESSB (EXTENDED SINGLE SIDEBAND) ADDED: Allows the K3 to transmit in

crystal
K3 beta firmware rev. 2.23 is now available. (Details appear below.)
Several K3 owners successfully tested the ESSB feature (Extended Single

Beta version 2.22 came up fine here. Most likely your browser is using a
previously cached page. Try forcing your browser to load the page from
the Elecraft web site.
