Stripped of a lot of stuff, the essence of it is this:
When we transmit using a SSB transmitter (and except for true FSK, all modern

My narrow filter is 250hz (FL4). FL4 cuts in when I change my DSP filtering

Robert,
The AF1 is an audio filter, not DSP based, so it is comparable to the

Yes, the KAF2 also has a variable center frequency (with 2 pots), but it
is not a Front Panel control, once it is set, it cannot be varied at

The form factor is quite different. The AF1 is a standalone filter that

Hello David,
K2 is a great radio for portable use especially the low standby current.
However, when you add up all the options in K2, you may wish to consider a
basic
K3. The price difference is not huge but performance is miles apart.

No, you need to use the same offset values for the same filter position in
the main and sub receivers. If the marked offsets aren't too far apart, you
can use the average of the two values for both receivers. That works fine
for my 500hz and 200hz 5-pole filters.
