[Elecraft] About knobs.

[Larry Wassmann]

Thanks to Don and Richard for your very complete description and suggestions. They both were helpful to a new K3 owner who came from the Icom world. I have to confess to everyone that I wanted and thought that the K3 would transmit and receive a complete 4kHz bandpass and allow me to record it via the DVR and play it back. I am one of the ESSB guys and as my Icom rigs were limited to a receive bandpass of 3.6 and a transmit bandpass of about 3K I had looked forward to being able to copy and playback some of the other guys on their new rigs that are at 4K and beyond faithfully. 


But apparently the K3 is not able to do that, and for that I am disappointed. I have the 6kHz filter and selected ESSB and was thinking/hoping that would be a real 4kHz bandpass both ways, but apparently not. Most males especially older males have good audio at or below 80Hz and I had wished to capture that along with their high frequencies. I personally do not want a bandpass beyond 4K but 4K both ways would have done the trick for me. Thanks for your fine help guys I really appreciate your efforts on my part.
