Fred's configuration struck me as quite surprising. With DSP at
5-700, his K3 would be using the 1000 kHz roofing filter, so there
would be a substantial frequency range blocked only by the DSP. And
ATT on -- why would this be attractive? I'd think to hear weak
signals close together, you'd turn off ATT, turn up RF gain, and
squeeze down to a narrow roofing filter. Wouldn't that make the
signals sharper and more legible?
I wonder if this choice of operating settings is the reason not
everyone hears the mushy effect.
