The problem is that both solutions occur *after* the A/D converter in
the radio!  One wants to get rid of the "big signal" or the multitude
of moderate signals before they saturate the ADC (or activate HAGC)
in order to maintain maximum sensitivity for the weak signals.

Look on the waterfall for the audio frequency of the signal of interest
and adjust the SHIFT to that center frequency, then narrow the width to
isolate that signal.

It is much more effective in reducing the strong unwanted signals than
attempting to notch them.

I didn't word that quite right....  CW = continuous carrier.  It's
very good for SW BC carriers, but not intended for broader signals
like power supply gudge.
nah, ya got it right ... there's a bunch of PSK-like tones as well as a
few spaced WSPR signals .... especially in the early morning. At that
time, for me, and on a 300 foot DP, they are really annoyingly strong. I
can neatly notch most, but the roughly 200Hz width would be neat if I
could make it wider or narrower ... like a surgical removal of
CW/Narrow-PSK modes/ WSPR

was just wondering. My K3 does so many things, most of them I haven't
discovered. Found nil in the manual; had to ask here "just in case".
