I have just completed my K3 Kit, S/N 01817, and installed the stock 2.8 kHz
filter and the 8-pole 2.1 kHz filter. Thinking these would handle my SSB needs
for the beginning. I plan to also operate Rtty and digital modes, and I wonder
if there are suggestions for the best filters. I think narr
Thanks to everyone for their comments on filters for a CW+AM K3. They
are very helpful.
I was aware of the distinction between roofing filter and DSP
filtering but didn't know (or forgot) about the 2.7 kHz standard
filter.
As for the "hoped for" multi-bandwidth filter, I guess it is probably

True enough -- but if you are a SW DXer trying to verify the ID of a weak,

Since I've had my K3 I've become even more aware than before that a
couple of ham neighbors (within a mile) are radiating really awful crap
capabilities, but I think you would actually have to do
some "hands on" to be sure you like the result.
O.K. That's my answer. I bet you get several others.

Drew,
For AM you will need either the 6 kHz or the 15 kHz filter - an AM
signal will not fit through the 2.7 kHz filter without seriously

The 2.7 kHz filter along with the DSP filtering does an acceptable job
for casual CW, but if a strong (S-9+30) station comes on th
There were many great posts about the filter options. Thanks to all who
provided good advice. I read all of them. This is my take on all of the
postings about filters.
1. The shape factor of a roofing filter is not as important as the shape
factor of a conventional main IF filter. Therefore, a
I'm wondering what minimum complement of filters would work for me in
a K3. I am only interested in general coverage reception of SWBC
stations, plus operating CW. I am a little unlclear about what filter
would be required for AM (reception only), with the KBPF3 option.
For CW I generally prefer a

Ci I ordered my K3 on May 1 but have not placed
a filter order yet. Elecraft promised to post full IMD/BDR
measurements for all filters but has not done so thus far.
As you probably know, ARRL discovered IMD problems w
