[Elecraft] mode-bandwidth question

[WILLIS COOKE]

Blair, you control the bandwidth with the width knob to the left of the main tuning knob.  You can have the width as narrow as you like or as wide as your widest filter while in the CW transmit mode.  If you really tune 10 meters, look for me.  I will hang around 28050 a lot when I recover from Hurricane Ike and get my SteppIR back up.
