Nice job. I figured all along it was either due to a brain problem or being

Reducing RF gain is also a big help.

t makes it easier to copy a given signal,
use it, and if it doesn't, leave it turned off. It's a tool. All tools are
not appropriate for all jobs all the time. You have to choose your tools and
when to use them.

It can be proven mathematically that the speed at which information can be sent
decreases
as the bandwidth of the channel decreases. One of the ways of increasing the
signal/noise
ratio of a channel is by narrowing it, but there's a trade-off -- you have to
slow down
the data rate. In our cas
I am not too impressed as the hollow ringing sounds like a regenerative
receiver going into oscillation. It can help you distinguish the dits but it
isn't pretty listening. I think the manuals need to catch up with the
betas so I can get more comfortable with the adjustments.

The new APF continues to please this CW operator.
Like others, I find it works better in some situations than others.
But I would not have been able to copy and work RI1FJ

A few suggestions for using it:

Let me state right up front that my CW is bad, mostly because of an ear
problem.
But my decoder software allows me to operate CW fairly well.
With that said --
Unfortunately, I stayed away from the previous beta version and sat back to
wait for this new version. Now, I don't have a comparison.

Hi
I was so impressed by the original K3 APF firmware. Why is it so lack luster
in the current beta?

John, did you check in the CONFIG menu to make sure APF is turned on?

When I used the APF in its original release on 160m and 80 meters it just blew
me away to mars and back. N
