Morning all, First post here from a new K3 owner. I have used a Inrad 1.8 kHz filter in my old Icom 756 and just loved it. I’ve just built K3 8098 and find the 1.8kHz filter much more uncomfortable to listen to in normal use. It is different beast. But I expect it will come into its own when digging that weak signal out of the QRM! At the moment I’m just enjoying learning to drive it…...
