No, and here's why: I leave the menu pitch setting at 600 Hz on all rigs here; it never changes. It's the RIT (non-split) or VFO A (split) that I adjust incoming CW to < 100 Hz while copying weak DX. I've been using this method on the Icom '7700 and '7800 since their purchase. Until I purchased the '7800 back in 2005, the only other radio I've owned that would produce ultra-low-pitch CW was the TS-870 but I never bothered trying low pitch CW reception until I tried it with the Icom. So, the fact that the K3 was able to copy the 4S7 station last night using a very low pitch (with F/W 3.25) was pretty exciting for me.
