Scott,
There are several combinations available to you, If you set the width
manually, and power off and then on, the width setting will be
remembered. There is also the I and II settings which are "floating
settings" that can be used as well as the NORM (400 Hz) and the Norm1
and Norm2 settings that can be almost anything you wish.
These settings are available from the K3 front panel. I am not sure
about the availability of them from any particular computer
application. All these settings are possible through computer control
(see the K3 Programmer's Reference), but not all may be implemented in a
particular piece of software.
73,
