[Elecraft] K3: Shift/Width encoder pulse noise?

[Joe Planisky]

Hi James,

As far as the noise when you turn shift/width, yes, I hear it too.  I  
assume it's the result of changing the DSP filter parameters.  If done  
while it's processing a strong signal it seems there's bound to be  
some artifacts.  I don't know if anything can be done to quiet them.   
I personally don't consider it a problem, but others might object to it.

As for the shift/width not altering the sub-RX settings unless you're  
in B-set, I think that's normal unless you're in diversity mode.

As for the different feel of the encoders, I can't comment.  Haven't  
had to replace mine.
