[Elecraft] ARRL RTTY Roundup

[K4IA at aol.com]

Can we redirect this to talk about the  K3?

1.  Using the K3, I have no problem working CW amidst the RTTY  contesters.  
Just narrow the filter and ignore them.  You cause them  more grief than they 
cause you.  

2.  I listened to RTTY a bit  as DATA A and FSK but found the default filter 
setting to be too narrow - I  could only see one station at a time.  It might 
work well if you were  running but for S&P, I needed the wide filter.  When I 
widened the  filter, the AGC caused a desense of the spectrum when a big 
signal fired  up.  I was using Winwarbler for the RTTY engine.  I guess the answer  
is to compromise on a 1khz roofing filter?

Any comments?  What do  you find to be the best combination for RTTY?
