Hi Jim,

I've always wondered why, for CW, with the K3 you would not want to set the RX EQ to peak at the CW PITCH setting?

I generally set RXEQ flat (no boost or cut) for general operation on mains power in both K3 and KX3.

BUT -- if you're going backpacking, you'll reduce battery drain a bit and increase audio headroom by setting the four lowest frequency bands for maximum cut. This does the same thing on RX that it does on TX -- it gets rid of low frequency components of voice that make no contribution to intelligibility but burn power.
