If you do a lot of AM transmit you will have a cleaner signal with the 6K filter.
Only marginally and only so far as it applies to synthesizer phase noise more than +/- 3 KHz from the carrier. Even then, the K3 will be much cleaner that the typical YaeComWood up-conversion transceiver with their 30 KHz wide 4 pole VHF filters. 73, ... Joe, W4TV On 10/10/2013 1:27 PM, Bill Frantz wrote:
I think Paul had gotten the information he was asking about from others Bill and Don. I don't see much use for the 6K filter since you can now use the 13K FM filter for AM transmit. If you do a lot of AM transmit you will have a cleaner signal with the 6K filter. If you only do AM receive, you can use the 2.7K or 2.8K filter to receive on only one sideband and get usable performance when conditions need narrower roofing than provided by the 13K filter. Save your filter slots for hard SSB, CW and digital conditions where roofing can be a lifesaver.
