I agree. If you want a lower Q APF, just use 50hz dsp selectivity without APF. 50hz dsp selectivity is an amazing contesting tool to isolate dx from the calling pileup. 73, Barry N1EU Robert Harmon wrote: It is interesting that some of us do not experience too much ringing

It's only an advantage when you're trying to ward off a key clicking neighbor. If your potential neighbors would have non-clicking rigs, there is no advantage. In any case, you are just being a jerk (or worse) if you're knowingly producing key clicks. Barry N1EU Jan Erik Holm wrote: Yes

It is fundamentally essential to use very high isolation headphones to achieve K3NA's dynamic range goal (i.e., to hear the weakest and strongest signals with AGC OFF without kicking in the limiter). It IS achievable. It's not a matter of sensitivity. Barry N1EU Dave Hachadorian wrote
