Hello folks. I operate cw 98% of the time. After 'rag chewing' for several years I'm becoming more interested in DX'ing. Also I'm eager to try my luck on 160 meters despite my QTH and antenna restrictions.
I've been considering purchasing the KRX3 (second receiver) for a year or more. However with the recent firmware upgrades and now the APF (audio peaking filter) feature on the standard K3 I'm wondering if the second receivers 'diversity receive' capability would be that much superior to the APF for weak/fading signals? (My results vary using the APF; abort 1/3 of the time it helps, 1/3 of the time I get 'clearer' copy with very narrow DSP bandwidth and no APF... the final 1/3 is a no copy either way.) If the APF approaches the effectiveness of the KRX3 on weak/fading sigs I may just go for a P3 instead. Thanks for any advice. chuck AF4XK -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/KRX3-vs-APF-on-weak-signals-tp6577049p6577049.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
