Like K6LL, I found my sweet spot with FC=1.1Khz. I went with width at 1.5 or 1.7Khz all weekend. I came up with one neat trick that I honed in the contest and that worked very well to pull out weak ssb dx with a loud neighbor in the passband (which happened VERY often). I turn AGC off, AF Lim on 20-22, AF Gain @ 25% (Heil Pro Set into headphone jack) and backed off RF Gain till the offender wasn't driving audio into distortion. Although the resulting audio level was quite low for the weak station, I was consistently able to pick him out under the loud station. It's amazing how quiet and clean the K3 sounds when the gain is throttled in this manner. 73, Barry N1EU -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Tweak-for-phone--tp2447544p2448948.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
