The band openings of the last two days at this QTH have allowed a new level of evaluation of K3. I'm mostly on 20m, with a hexbeam, and the last couple days have provided a boost in band activity that I have not seen since I got the transceiver 2 years ago. Of course there are some guys that only got their K2's a couple years ago, they will be equally impressed.
I have still not encountered any scenario where the roofing filter (2.7 and 1.0) improved my operation, the DSP seems as robust as I need it to be for a modest gain antenna. This solar maximum will be different, the sideband frequencies will have as much fidelity as AM or FM used to. I can still remember having guests in the shack that could not decipher the monkey chatter OT the code. ;-) K3 guys pick up a wider than 2.7 khz roofing filter to take best advantage of this. Here it comes! ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
