Every time I use APF I am amazed... It takes a signal I can almost not
hear, and makes it Q5.

I managed to get Baker Island in the log on 15-80 meters on FT8 (it took BOTH
the KAT500 and KAT3 for 60m, but that's another story). I had filled some
other slots, too.
What I really wanted was 40 CW, my favorite band from my Novice days in the the
70s. I camped out on 7023 for hours, sometimes nearly all night. I just
couldn't quite hear them well enough on my vertical to call. Then last night,
around 2:30 am PDT, I heard them coming up. I tried every cw filter width, in
between, nothing quite worked. Then I remembered way back when Wayne had
announced the new APF feature for the K3-- I had never used it, but I
remembered the raves about it.
I punched up APF, and BANG I could hear them! Some calls later, they were in
the log.
They went QRT around 5am PDT.
Damn. That was fun.
