hi Craig - three things: 1. The manual advises you to order the filters from widest in XFIL 1 and go narrower from there. I think this is good advise, to keep it easy to remember where they are. You can order them any way you want, this is just a recommendation. 2. I don't think you will mov

hi Barry - just based on my limited contest operating, the trapezoid seems sufficient to remind me of where I am with BW and shift. Also, the XFIL display helps because you know what you have installed in each slot - for example if XFIL4 is 400Hz, I know when XFIL4 is lit that I am less than o

Is there any numeric indication of the K3 rx bandwidth on the display? When you change the bandwidth, the current width is briefly displayed in the VFO B display. 73, Lyle KK7P ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must b
