Hi,
Am readying myself to invest in a K3.
I am a CW op, rarely on any other mode, (haven't used any other mode
in over four years).
I chase DX and enjoy the occasional contest but am not a dedicated
contester. On the other hand, I tend to go 100% into any of my
endeavours and when I contest, I contest to the best of my abilities.
I currently have an Omni V with a set of Inrad CW filters and find
them a tad too ringy for my liking though I find the 2.4kHz with the
250Hz narrow filter in line pretty effective. I find the 250Hz filter
with the 250Hz narrow filter also selected almost too noisy for my
pleasure.
Sans ringing, I would love a 50Hz filter but reality says I need
something wider.
That probably says enough about my CW desires as regards the K3.
With that, what filter should I go with to maximise my CW experience?
Thanks,
Gary
