Last night I got my KDSP2 working and I tried the single test that I've
been waiting to try ever since the unit was announced.
With the DSP bypassed, I tuned in a weak CW signal, the kind that
prompts me to say "I hear you in there but too weakly to copy much". I
had already set the XFIL to 400 Hz, which has proved to be the most
effective in this situation.
Then I turned on the DSP, activating only the lowpass mode and the noise
reduction. The signal popped right out, 100 percent copy!
I've never been one of those guys who is good at 'ESP' copy, so maybe a
really good weak signal operator wouldn't see so much improvement. But
it sure makes a difference for me.
