With all the filter discussions and contest crowded environment etc. This AM during the 160 contest, I was just tuning and working a few to give out a point, as I tuned across 1814.0 there was a 10 over 9 6 land station calling cq, and at 1814.35 another 6 land at 20 over 9 calling cq, but between I hear a signal at 1814.2 so narrowing down the K3 I proceeded to work VQ9LA who was just above the noise level. Have done this many times since owning the K3 and its a real tribute to its selectivity and ability to cope with signals loud enough to squash most receiver front ends. Im sure it does not make for friends when you come on within a few hundred cycles and work stations out from under the big signals, but sure makes for nice DXing on topband. 73 Merv KH7C ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected]
