Once it got in the wild and many of us tried "this and that", it has proven far better than JT65a at DXing weak signal conditions from 160m to 6m. And I for one have used it in the aforementioned bands. It's also been used very nicely on EME. Yesterday's testing by me revealed that when I had a station reduce power, and he went eventually from +30db to -9db, I got sync=2 and 3 but no decode. Thus my original question about 'Could this mean we can hear a weaker signal because we use a 400Hz filter', results in a "No" answer empirically. So far. But I am so new to the K3 that I am not going to categorically say that is fact. -- Best regards, Bob KD7YZ Win7-64bit + K3 ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
