I had the same dilemma. I went for the 250 and 500 for the reason you mentioned. I normally listen at 350 hz but 250 in contests. If you are mostly interested in CW why bother with the DVR? The 2nd RX is very nice but I find that I seldom use it after the first few months. I don’t think you need to match them. I have a 400 hz filter in my sub RX and have had good success with diversity etc. Just my 2 cents worth. 73, -Robby VY2SS From: Don KB1YBG [via Elecraft] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, July 04, 2012 8:37 PM To: Robby.VY2SS Subject: K3 for CW
I'm about to place order for k3 kit. I'm currently only interested in CW, have a K2 I built, and want to spring for a K3. Currently my order includes the KAT3, KDVR3, 400 & 250 8-pole filters. I've been following P3, 2nd Rcvr here but am not ready for those yet. My question is 1) best filters for CW and 2) any other must-have options. I've read Wayne's article about filter selection but still unsure. It seems the 400 and 250 may be close to same and 1000 and 400 a better choice. Or 500 5-pole? I'll be adding Sec Rx so what about filter matching? 73, Don, KB1YBG _____ If you reply to this email, your message will be added to the discussion below: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K3-for-CW-tp7558622.html To start a new topic under [K3], email [email protected] To unsubscribe from [K3], click here <http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/template/NamlServlet.jtp?macro=unsubscribe_by_code&node=365792&code=cm9iYnlAYmVsbGFsaWFudC5uZXR8MzY1NzkyfDI4NjUyMjA0NQ==> . <http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/template/NamlServlet.jtp?macro=macro_viewer&id=instant_html%21nabble%3Aemail.naml&base=nabble.naml.namespaces.BasicNamespace-nabble.view.web.template.NabbleNamespace-nabble.view.web.template.NodeNamespace&breadcrumbs=notify_subscribers%21nabble%3Aemail.naml-instant_emails%21nabble%3Aemail.naml-send_instant_email%21nabble%3Aemail.naml> NAML _____ No virus found in this message.
