[Elecraft] A K3 CW/DX operating scenario from N6KR

[Craig D. Smith]

Thanks, Wayne, for the CW hints.  Just tried your suggested NR setting and
like it in conjunction with the narrow BW.

I'm also finding the P3 a BIG help with CW DX operating, especially for
finding the new ones before they get posted to the clusters.  One thing you
didn't mention in your posting that I really like is using the P3 in
conjunction with the option of assigning the K3 RIT pot as a quick QSY
control.  To follow up on your example, after looking at the 10 KHz chunk
centered on 7.005, a very quick small turn of the RIT knob moves the center
freq. to 7.015 to look at the next 10 KHz chunk.  One more move of the
center to 7.025 will pretty much cover all the interesting CW.  I use this
method on all the CW bands and really enjoy it.  Less cranking, more
watching  ;>)

  Thanks for the great gear
