[Elecraft] Easy optimizing the K2 filters

[Göran]

Wanted to check my filtersettings on my old K2 ( #326). It was way off. But no problem: I choose:
Menu - Cal - Fil.
There - while listening to noice I could  do all sort of things (like setting up the band with ) - and if pressing (Band-) could tune in the narrower bands to be precise on the frequency band. (try it -its quite special)
Its was very easy actually and reminds me of the benefits of having build the K2 myself.

I have seen some suggestions about using e.g. Spectrogram, a program I know very well - but when I tried to listen myself instead I reached my optimum much faster. That was 400Hz tone 1,4Khz, 0,70, 0,40, 0,16.

So my suggestion is to listen to noice and adjust accordingly through MENY-CAL-FIL and (band-) (and toggle through XFIL) if you want to realign an old K2.. on the filter side.
