[Elecraft] Wide CW Signals

[David Glasser]

I have a 1967, 7.2 liter, V8, all original Buick Riviera, why, because it is noisy and probably does not meet emission standards should I relegate it to the musem?
It is a thing of beauty admired by all, and no one cares about the consumption or the mileage on the tyres.
If it were not for that 1967 Buick many cars would not exist today!!
Just saying!!

As do many, I love looking at old gear and I marvel at the engineering skills of those who came before us youngsters, however, to use them on 20M in todays' conditions is nothing short of shameful.
15Khz wide, scratchy hard to listen to audio simply adds to the QRM and uses unnecessary bandwidth is not something I want to see/hear on the bands.
I wish these old museum pieces were placed in a museum instead.
Obviously saying anything less than glowing comments on the operators signal is greeted with scornful remarks.
I bought my K3 to get a tight, clean signal, most however it seems buy 'eye candy' over specs.
Just my devalued 2 cents worth.

I've also been chasing NPOTA stations, most of whom are on 20 SSB. It is hard to believe until you hear one but there are fools running 12 KHz wide AM there.
