One aspect that Doug leaves out, however is that of audio quality. Signals will sound different with different filtering.
Using a 2.8 XFIL and DSP to make it 1.8 KHz, I found SSB signals to be a bit "tinny" and hard sounding. I installed a 1.8 KHz XFIL, and found the audio quality to be improved. It was quite noticeable as I turned the width control downwards to where the 1.8 XFIL kicked in - the audio experience sounded like a continuation of what I was hearing at 1.9, only (obviously) an itty bitty bit narrower. The tinniness and harshness was not present. All IMHO. 73, Steve NN4X On Sat, Jul 12, 2008 at 11:45 AM, Ron D'Eau Claire <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Doug, KR2Q, presented a superb explanation of why one needn't sweat too much > over the "roofing" (first I.F.) filter in the K3. > _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
