[Elecraft] K2: DSP for CW ? - Curious

[Robert Tellefsen]

Hi Chuck
I run my KDSP2 all the time, and vary the
NR setting according to the noise I hear.
Sometimes I get improved results by adding the Attenuator
or the Preamp.  It all depends on the type of noise
and its amplitude relative to the desired signal.
You really do have to experiment a bit to find the
best settings at any given time.

The tightest IF selectivity and DSP selectivity
often make a big difference too.  Try everything
and see what works best in your situation.

Good luck and 73

K2 Question [cause I don't know]
Past experience with 'other' DSP options and CW if I have a CW signal buried
[way] down in the noise level and DSP is activated the CW signal will
sometimes be cut back or disappear along with the noise.

So just out of curiousity how does the K series work with respect to you can
here the signal faintly amidst the noise levels?
