Well, I didn't mention who it was that made the comment about what we now can call the k3zo method. However, the guy who sees an advantage in a 3 khz roofing filter can do just that!!

For some years while he was living in NC, I had the pleasure of operating with W2CS at the NY4A multi/multi sessions. There were some number of neat things he could do, that I could not make happen in my brain, including the K3ZO method and typing 100% copy well behind the signal while carrying on an unrelated conversation. I think I figured out I can't copy CW and chew gum at the same time or something pretty close. So beware of presentation of methodology as general technique, that actually requires some not-so-common physical talents to pull off. I *do* know that K3ZO and W2CS *can* do that, and I also know that I *cannot*. And I also know that my chances of typing CW well behind the signal and carrying on a separate conversation in the room about how deep to plant radials at the same time are simply, factually, ZERO. :>) I do know how to turn K3 diversity into a sound stage and spread signals in a pile up around an audio "horizon". So I'm not totally devoid. :>) 73, Guy K2AV ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected] ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
