Jim, can't say that I have noticed the problem you mention, in fact I was thinking the KX3 was handling close in strong stations better than my TS-590. I do have the roofing filters and also am tending to use bandwidths of 100-300Hz. There are a lot more key clicks, buzzing and general noise these days, my guess a lot is from incorrectly setup amplifiers/rigs with bad CW waveforms or both!
