I use the settings I & II to go from normal and shift width for best signal pullouts when working DX. Please don't suggest this be changed?_(:

In my TS-870, voice modes use Hi/Lo cut and CW and data modes use Width/Shift by default. I wish the K3 did the same.

Typically one only needs to decrease HI CUT and the center frequency takes care of itself. When the HI CUT gets so low that intelligibility is beginning to decay, a slight change upward in LO CUT can improve things, but normally LO CUT is a "set and forget" control for SSB - mine normally stays at 0.15, 0.20 or 0.25. Try it and I would wager that most of you struggling with the WIDTH and SHIFT for SSB will never go back. 73, Don W3FPR ______________________________________________________________ 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 ______________________________________________________________ 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
