Re: [Elecraft] Data mode shows 600hz BW on P3

Jim, Why use XFIL at all? The filter selection will follow the DSP filter bandwidth, switching in your filters as needed for the bandwidth selected by the DSP Width filter. I never have found a use for the XFIL button on my K3, I do it all with the width control. 73, Don W3FPR On

Jim, Yes, the filter width in DATA A mode defaults to a narrow bandwidth - even though you have the 2.8kHz filter, it still defaults to a narrow bandwidth like 400 or 600 Hz (I can't recall which). That is an aid to those who choose to use the VFO dial to tune in a single data mode station.

When I switch to DATA mode, the receive bandwidth is only about 600 Hz even though when I check with Data MD it shows the USB mode. I have the 2.8 filter selected and it shows on the display and using the K3 Utility program. The audio also shows that there is only 600 Hz bandwidth. When I switch
