I use different pitches at different times. Lower pitches are better if you are trying to discriminate between two very closely spaced signals. Higher pitches may be better under some conditions. It may be worthwhile to change the pitch from time to time just for variety...
I wish I could "tune" the pitch while listening to the effect on the actual signal conditions (and keeping the signal centered in the passband). But when PITCH is engaged the on-air signals are muted on the K3, even if the MON volume is set to zero. BTW, for the K2 I wrote down the filter alignments for several different pitches and could re-enter them pretty quickly. It took about a minute to change pitches this way, if I recall... 73, Drew AF2Z On Sat, 28 Feb 2015 14:29:31 -0500, you wrote: >I like to use the CWT function when operating CW and then the Spot button >to zero-beat. >I have been using 700 Hz as the pitch but would like to hear a lower >frequency audio tone for my own preference. > >What is the mind of the Reflector on a best tone frequency and related to >whether it has any impact on the roofing filter selections?
