I can't do that just yet but I will when I get my new K3. Improved full QSK

those issues.

Don, all,
Discussed this upgrade with Vidi ZS1EL yesterday. Given the already excellent
K3 RX, ours and presumably others' primary interest is improved QSK, including
the new mode reported to reduce clicks/pops at the expense of a little slower
QSK. Could someone with the upgrade installed

Not a bad idea... It would be nice to hear before and after
recordings.
Also, recordings with the RF gain at max and sidetone volume at zero
while the rig is being keyed, in presence of other signals and alone

I have the 700Hz/5-pole, the 400 Hz/8-pole, and the 200 Hz/5-pole.
The only real concern in selecting a preferred pitch is that the K3

than 200 Hz. If you select a center frequency less than 550 Hz,

In my youth as a cellist, we always used A 442 or 443Hz. Exception was if there

The slightly sharp tuning always sounded better to me.

I use different pitches at different times. Lower pitches are better
if you are trying to discriminate between two very closely spaced
signals. Higher pitches may be better under some conditions. It may be
worthwhile to change the pitch from time to time just for variety...

Hi,
If you have an older hearing test, use the most recent one, and see what
part of the audio spectrum you hear best at, within the allowed spectrum
of the K3. Then select that frequency. I had a hearing test, and the
best frequency was several hundred HZ away from my optimum, and many db
away

Ted,
On the K3 or KX3, just hold the pitch button and adjust it to your
preferred listening pitch - that is all there is to it.
The K3 will adjust the filter centers accordingly, you don't have to do
anything else.
I cannot tell you what is the best pitch for you. All I can say is the

I note
The message does not include pitch, but it is my opinion from years of copying
cw that the best pitch is a function of the listeners hearing. It is worth
some effort to determine the best pitch for your ears, as we get older we have
dead spots which are a function of your experience, so while
