[Elecraft] K3: Is Width of Notch-Filter adjustable in some reasonable amount?

Bob,

Instead of using a notch filter, how about narrowing the DSP filter 
width to select the signal that you want.
Look on the waterfall for the audio frequency of the signal of interest 
and adjust the SHIFT to that center frequency, then narrow the width to 
isolate that signal.

It is much more effective in reducing the strong unwanted signals than 
attempting to notch them.
