The most important thing is to make sure that the CWT is lineing up in the 
EXACT center.  In other words, make sure the little black bar that indicates 
when your CW is in the Center of the IF is lined up in the CENTER of the graph 
on the display.  The next more important thing is to make sure that if you're 
NOT going to use the Auto mode that you try the LOWEST setting first.  Think of 
it as noise gate, if you set the gate too high than NO signal will pass in and 
be decoded.  Once you have the signal set right, and the Threshold is set okay, 
than you should try to keep your filter set somewhere around 100 or 150Hz. 
Also, try reducing your RF gain so that you don't have as much noise along with 
the signal.  You can try runing your at NR 1-4. That seems to work very well 
for this too..  The less the amount of noise you have on top of the signal the 
better the chances are it will decode.  If YOU can't understand the code, don't 
expect the K3 to be able to.
