[Elecraft] Data mode and filters

[Fred Jensen]

OTOH, a K3 will play just fine and not incur the wrath of the BW cops 
when fired up "right out of the box."  In fact, it is wise to use it 
some, become familiar with the manual and menus, and have Fred Cady's 
book open to the correct page before changing anything.  Elecraft has 
wisely omitted the menu entry to change the keying waveform found on 
some other transceivers in the upper price classes.

If I got an unsolicited email from a stranger telling me something was 
wrong with my signal, I doubt I'd panic [the FCC seems to have run out 
of "pink slips" several decades ago], but I'd check it out with a 
reliable friend just in case.  RF into the mic circuit can cause a whole 
lot of trouble in an otherwise pristine radio.
