[Elecraft] K3 SSB Bandwidth at this Time?

[Greg - AB7R]

Hi Dave,

Right now the TX BW is limited by the 2.7 or 2.8 kHz roofing filter and firmware.  This IS 
on the list and moving up rapidly.  While I cannot say for sure when it will be available 
with certainty, I would still go ahead with the 6.0 kHz filter.  There's a reasonable 
chance it may be available by the time you get your radio or shortly after.
