[Elecraft] Want to Buy a K3

[Dave Hachadorian]

Hi Larry,

I do RTTY and SSB contesting too.  I settled on the stock 2.7 for ssb 
ragchewing, 1.8 for ssb contesting, and 250 for cw and rtty contesting.  I 
had some others, but sold them.  In the config menu, tell the K3 that the 
1.8 is really a 2.1, and tell the k3 that the 250 is a 400.  That way, they 
will switch in at dsp bandwidth of 2.1 and 400 respectively.  Those filters 
sound great that way.  The 250, with dsp set at about 350, is nice & flat 
on the mmtty display over the entire 170 hz distance between the mark & 
space, and a little beyond.

I just got back to the "Frost Fest" and played with a K3 I'm 95% sure I'm 
going buy a K3. I want to
start  and build. I have to start with the K3/100 as 10 watts won't drive 
my amp. I have a SteppIR
so the tuner isn't needed. My question what is the minimum filters. I don't 
do CW, I do RTTY
contests and voice contests.

Thanks
