Yes, thanks to Steve. Fooling around with Rx eq I used his settings as a starting point and adjusted as follows:
I cut some of the higher bands as he did in order to reduce noise. But not too much, in order to hear signals farther off freq I generally use a pretty wide xfil to hear more of the adjacent signals. (There aren't too many of them out there lately.) I also boosted the low bands because they don't add much noise and will make it easier to hear those who call far off-frequency on the high side (i.e., lower tone). My sidetone is 600 Hz and I can hear off-freq signals up to about 500 Hz lower in tone (higher on the dial). So RX equalization is most useful to those of us who like a wide CW filter b/w. Yes, Bud, it would be very nice if the RX eq was mode specific. 73, Drew AF2Z On Sat, 21 Jun 2008 15:44:33 -0700, Bud N7CW wrote: >Steve, > >Thanks for this insight.
