[Elecraft] [K3] 440 Hz CW Pitch - Wow!

[Don Wilhelm]

I saw that information and concluded that it did not apply to my ears.
I would suggest that anyone who wants to experiment to tune into a CW 
signal and alter the pitch to that which is most beneficial to their 
ears.  Then use an audio Spectrum Analyzer running into a computer 
soundcard (such as Spectrogram - download a good copy from my website 
www.w3fpr.com) to see what pitch is being received.
I have done that a number of times and have concluded that 570 Hz is the 
best for my ears, but each person is a bit different, decide for 
yourself and let your ears tell you what is best for you.

73,
