To clarify -- Will something equivalent to this mode be possible on the K3 >>IN AM MODE<< -- i.e., without having to absorb the carrier energy, as when listening in USB/LSB mode? Can I shift the IF passband in AM mode and listen to just one sideband or the other?

Bill,

In AM mode, if you tap XFIL to select a 2.8 or 2.7 kHz filter, then SHIFT the passband down (counterclockwise), you'll be removing one sideband. The narrower crystal filter passband results in a loss of fidelity from the high-precision I-Q AM demodulator, but the signal will still be intelligible.

If you want to control which sideband you remove, you can always use LSB or USB. This provides excellent fidelity on AM signals, and you don't have to touch the VFO -- just changes modes.
