[Elecraft] K3 AM receive question

[Adrian]

Gary I like having both, 2.1k @ 1.4 shift is my favourite setup. When
neighbours get too close the 1.8k goes to work with 1.8k (or less) @ 1.3(or
less) shift..

 

Cheers

 

Adrian

Adrian,

I am puzzled. I sold my 2.1Khz and got the 1.8Khz and listen at 1.75 pretty
much all the time.

Where do you find the 2.1Khz filter works over the 1.8Khz?

Thanks Don, I guess I misread an old post that had given me the impression
that the 13k filter could be "tricked"
I am glad I did not get rid of my 6k filter now, sitting in its box in the
draw.

One thing I would wish for in the K3 is six filter slots instead of the 5, I
could setup all; 250hz8p,  1.8k8p, 2.1k8p, 2.8k8p,  6k8p and 13k filters.
If there was a kit to add an extra filter slot, I would get it tomorrow.

Adrian.

The 13 kHz filter can be used for AM receive and the effect is quite nice,
but if you want t transmit AM you must have the 6 MHz filter installed.
