[Elecraft] K3 CW set up

[Greg - AB7R]

John,

I started back up with the QRP Fox Hunts on 40M.  Sometimes there are strong sigs near where 
the packs are running so I use the 500 Hz filter.  I also have the 200 Hz installed so if I 
really narrow the BW it comes on automatically.  But its probably not needed unless there are 
S9+40 sigs very close to the operating frequency.

I would recommend the 500 Hz roofing filter for best performance if you are only looking for 
one extra roofing filter in addition to the 2.7 kHz that comes with the K3.
