[Elecraft] DSP Shape Factor and Weak Signals

[Greg]

Barry,

The K3 has a great tool similar to this.  Its called a dual pass band filter
but a better description may be a context filter.  The firs 20dB or so is
narrow but the the skirt widens out below that.

My experience with low band dx'ing on the Orion concurs with W4ZV's -
particularly in noisy conditions.  Instead of using a steep skirted
400hz filter, I found that using a broad skirted but nominally
narrower (100-150hz) filter in DSP consistently did a better job
pulling the weak sigs out of high noise on the Orion.

Will the K3 afford adjustability of the DSP filter shape?
