I'm just finally getting into hunting for CW on the bands to listen
to, to help improve my on-air listening - I can read about 7WPM (20
char speed) and trying to find signals with my K3.
I can hear a few around on 40m with the filter set to 1.8KHz, but when
I start to reduce the filter width down, I loose it at 500Hz - I can
hear very well at 550Hz, but drop the 50Hz and it disappears - this is
after doing an auto spot.
Tuning around the frequency, I still can't find it.
Is this a combination of filter width and my sidetone pitch, which is
set to 500Hz?
I have latest beta f/w, a 400Hz, 1.8KHz, 2.8KHz and 6kHz filters
73 de M0XDF, K3 #174

Patience serves as a protection against wrongs as clothes do against
cold.
For if you put on more clothes as the cold increases, it will have no
power to hurt you.
So in like manner you must grow in patience when you meet with great
wrongs,
and they will then be powerless to vex your mind.
