Hi Robert, I work 100% CW, and in my K3 have a 1KHz, 400Hz, & 250Hz. Now, I know it's a lot of redundancy, but I figured for the couple of extra bucks, what the heck!
You just might want to go with the 400Hz & 250Hz. Most on this reflector will say that being as close in bandwidth as they are, to forget the 250Hz and go with the 200Hz. Personally, I chose the 250Hz because it is a 8-pole filter and the 200Hz is a 5-pole. Good luck in your purchase, you will not be sorry choosing a K3! 73 de Jim - KE8G -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Gary D Krause Sent: Friday, February 03, 2012 4:57 PM To: Robert G.

I also work mostly QRP anymore so, I have the 400 and 200Hz roofing filters. They work super for me! Gary, N7HTS On Fri, 03 Feb 2012 20:14:31 +0000 "Robert G.
