But if you leave the setting at its nominal, can you hear the difference as that bandwidth is selected? I'm not sure I understand the advantage you are gaining by bringing the crystal filter in later; I'll do if there's something to be gained, it sounds an interesting approach. David G3UNA

When the hardware AGC responds under these conditions, I am guessing that the effect might be an increase in the general background noise heard. This is really what I was after. After looking at the clock last night and finishing off my post too quickly, I got poster's remorse about the

Not sure, David, if your Q was to me or to Hank. I can only answer for me. When I adjust the filter width knob, I'm most definitely hearing the combined effect of the DSP bandwidth reduction and the change in roofing filters. But, since I can change DSP without changing the roofing filter (by

The reason I'm particularly interested is because I fancy doing diversity reception and de-select my roofing filters in the main rx so there is no phase shifting relative to the second rx without filters. Have you de-selected the roofing filters to do a comparison with and without? David

Nope, I have not. My operating (near zero right now due to life getting in the way) is 99.9% CW, old school, with manual keys. I'm not pushing the envelop so I'm not trying new novel things. These days, I pretty much just use my rig rather than playing testing with it. - Keith N1AS - - K3
