Bob, I would recommend you review the forum discussions on this subject last year from September thru November. This was discussed extensively. The K3 APF has been optimized. To reduce the sharp high Q audio sound would entail reducing the Q and flattening out the response. In essence reducin

I find the APF to be very effective when preceded by a relatively wider filter as suggested by K9ZTV, and offsetting the receive a little as mentioned by W6OPO. I generally use the 250 Hz crystal filter, followed by a DSP bandwidth between 200-300 Hz. I use a macro to turn on APF and FINE and

I've found that using the APF with the 400 filter (or wider) dialed-in provides less ringing than using APF with the 50 filter (DSP) dialed-in. Either way, it's effectiveness is excellent, and that from a twelve-year FT-1000D owner. 73, Kent K9ZTV Jefferson City, MO __

APF ringing and over powering... I have had input from two Elecraft support fellows one of which was helpful. That being move the receiver off frequency (RIT) about 10Hz then adjust the APF center frequency to match. Some help - yes. But... The Elecraft implementation of APF in MCU 4.22 just
