[Elecraft] My First "Oh, isn't THAT Kewl" moment with new K3

[Fred Smith]

Nothing to be ashamed about I'm in the same boat I learn something new every
day either in the manual, Fred Cady's book or here and the K3 yahoo
reflector. It's quite a radio with many hidden goodies inside the menus or
even just holding your mouth right sometimes you find something.

Howdy K3' people:
Having read this "List" for almost a month, I'd sheepishly resigned myself
to not bother to write something saying that I had a new K3 #6945.

Dunno what I was thinkin' when I thought that.

Just fired it up having read the bare minimum of the manual parts pertaining
to setup and start. (I'm impetuous after 50 years of this).

Well, here I am, all "Collins Filters" stopped down on a great CW signal on
30m while I was listening to the 5mc version of WWV .. ALL AT THE SAME TIME,
for goshsakes!

It seems the band is dead .. but wait! ... I somehow had pushed "XFIL"
because "FIL" looked like it meant Filters ... and then decided "Shift" &&
"Width" might have something interesting to add to "XFIL", and,"Yeah" =
"What QRM" ...

HI HI   ... what will happen after I start reading the manual this
morning?

Thanks for listening.
