The two widest filters in my K3 are a 2.8K and a 6K AM filter. The widest bandwidth I seem to be able to select for CW mode is 2.8K, not 6K. I checked which boxes are selected in the filters section of the Elecraft utility and I have the 6K CW enable box checked. I've noticed this before and have always wondered why there seems to be this limitation.

I've read the manual but may have missed this point. Specifically, on the K3, does mode selection control maximum receive bandwidth? For example, can I tune through a quiet 10 CW band with a 2.8 KHz filter enabled, but in CW mode and ready to transmit? Or, because I have selected CW mode, and have i.e., a 400 Hz filter installed, am I limited to a 400 Hz wide window on the band? 73, Blair k3yd _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
