Wes,
Rob Sherwood's presentation at the following link answers the "why"
question a lot better than I can:
http://www.sherweng.com/RochesterMN2009/NC0B-W0DXCC-4dRochester_MN.pdf
At the following link, Eric explains why selecting a narrow filter for
CW operation in a K3 offers superior performance over selecting a wide
(sideband) filter and adjusting the DSP to a narrow bandwidth:
http://www.elecraft.com/K3/Roofing_Filters.htm
The point I am trying to make is that a K3 with a 2.7 KHz filter and the
DSP cranked down to 400 Hz will not perform as well for CW during
crowded band conditions as a K3 with a 400 Hz filter.
73,
Bill - NA5DX
