Dave, You have already received some correct answers, but let me try to inject a bit of generalized information that should allow you to figure this out in the future for any band and for either LSB or USB.
The K3 will display the (suppressed) carrier frequency. That means that USB signals will be higher in frequency than the carrier, so in the specific case of your question, you will be in the band (assuming the K3 frequency is properly calibrated). Similarly, LSB signals will be below the carrier frequency, so if you are operating on 80 meters where your lower band limit is 3800 kHz, you will be within the general portion of the band if your VFO is set to 3804 kHz (to be safe). If you are absolutely certain your SSB width is 3 kHz or less, then you can go as low as 3803 kHz. 73, Don W3FPR On 7/14/2012 4:39 PM, David Guernsey wrote: > If I tune my K3 to 14.225 MHz will I be in the General Class portion > of the 20 meter band, or do I have to allow for the width of my USB > signal when I transmit? > > > ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
