Before MLB.com came up with their odd method of streaming HD (really very
good), I would listen to WCBS am out of New York for the nightYankees
games. What actually worked the best, even though I had the 6 kHz filter,
was 1.8 kHz filter SSB reception with the shift adjusted for best clarity,

Dave, you've gotten a lot of good inputs that likely addresses the problem
you noticed.
There is a couple of other sources of irritating distortion on the "short
waves" where skip reception is common when you are listening to a full
double-sideband full-carrier A.M signal that are caused by propag
This limitation of audio bandwidth of AM signals to 1.35 kHz is only true
when the AM carrier is centered in the roofing filter passband. As Don says,
AM is a double sideband signal, but you only need to receive one sideband to
hear all the audio. You can use the big knob on the K3 to tune slightly
I have the 13Khz filter fitted in my K3 which may be a better option than the
6Khz. The am audio is quite superb.

Dave,
AM is a double sideband signal, so the audio you receive will be only
about half that of your filter setting. The 2.7 kHz roofing filter is
limiting the demodulated audio to about half the width of that filter -
1.35 kHz - so you will not hear any high audio frequencies no matter how

Dave,
The fidelity will improve significantly with the wider filter. Regarding
the distortion, try backing off on the RF Gain control a bit and see if
that helps. It does here. You might also find that there is less
distortion with Synchronous AM detection engaged.

Yes you need the 6.00 KHz filter for transmit and receive.

I just received and assembled my K3 about a week or so ago, I only have the
2.7Khz. filter that was shipped with the kit. I love the operation on SSB and
digital modes BUT, when listening to the DX60 AM net the audio is quite
distorted. I started out with the filter set to NORMAL and then made i
