I do use the presets (I/II). I would prefer the idea of fixed presets
that get loaded into the working settings.
Thanks for asking, Barry WK2S

I'm sure Don has given this advice before, because on someone's advice here
some time ago, I started doing it this way and find I have much better
results.

I haven't used them much. I do tend to forget I'm modifying a config and
then of course, can't get back to it quickly. I find I'm pressing 'NORM' a
lot, so I think perhaps I would prefer to set this up with presets.
It's not clear to me how I would set these up per mode, I'd prefer to have 2

This is the beauty of firmware: it's malleable. No need to keep
functionality if it gets zero
I understand that and I also guess quite a few would be - you have a very
valid point. how about not displaying either I or II if you move the
settings away from the preset?

Wayne,
I am mainly a sideband operator. I like and use the presets. I have
preset 1 set for narrow filter and shifted for best audio. Preset 2
is set for a wider filter for rag chewing. I agree with the points made
by WB6MND and so would also prefer fixed presets. When the QRM starts,

Tony,
To reduce the width on SSB, try just using Hi Cut instead of the width
and shift controls. Normally when reducing the SSB filter width, the
low end should be near 300 Hz (the K3 uses 250 by default). Keeping the
low frequency corner of the SSB filter fixed at 350 to 300 Hz preserves

The easy answer is, allow both modi. The use can choose in a menu which
way he wants the function.
Up to now I have not used the I/II filters
Do you find the DSP/XFIL filter presets, I/II, useful? If you haven't
tried them yet, please do. Here's the short version:
In each mode, there are two presets (you can also think of them as
configurations). Each preset is just a combination of DSP settings
and the corresponding automatic
I don't find the presets any use whatsoever. Turning the width/shift
controls is so easy they are not needed.

Greetings:
I use the I/II switch especially when coupled with HRD DM718 in PSK-31 mode.
With the switch setting to a previous wide (I) setting, I see the whole
waterfall spectrum, pick a signal, click the DM718 centering which
autosets the K3 freq to the center of the bandpass, click the I/II

I use the presets all the time. I kind of like them the way you have them
now (floating).

Yes, I use the presets, and I agree with the field testers as to the change.
I would like to be able to return to fixed settings that I program and are
stored. That way I always have a familiar starting point that works best in
most situations, but that I can adjust further to customize for the

First... Thanks for asking !! I, too, use the I/II filter
pre-sets and, as several others have indicated, I like them the
way they are now.. Being able to choose one (or the other) and
then tweaking, if necessary, is a really great feature. Doug, KR2Q,
has raised an interesting
I use the presets often.

I don't like the presets floating every time I make a change. They are not
presets, they are resets and I never know what might result from pushing the
button because I can't remember what width was used the last time I switched
it.
I would much rather have a wide preset and a narrow

When running in a multi-op contest station, for a while anyway with some
unfamiliar with K3, would be better to have well thought out presets to
