CW is getting better. There have been some major RX/TX/RX transition time improvements in the PB-PAL code being currently tested that will be the next new version of PowerSDR (version 2.0). Better QSK is coming.

Hi Tim, I'm a CW Op so have no use for Mic/ALC/MOD monitoring hence I was interested in the SWR reading. It's not a problem as I always have an SWR meter inline, I was just interested to find out how it worked ;) I am most impressed with the filtering on the F3K, a little disappointed with the QSK and the poor Auto Notch, although I've not played with the ANF settings yet as I'm not sure I fully understand them, more reading required. I must say that the F3K is much better at pulling out the weak CW signals than either my FT1000MP or Tentec Omni VI ever were! Cheers! Mike.
