Jeff,

The "sweet spot" for the K3/K3S or KX3 is most anywhere in the 300 to 
3000 Hz range.
That is *IF* you are using DATA A submode where the TX and RX 
equalization is set to flat and the compression is turned off.

If you are trying to use SSB mode, you can follow the "internet advice", 
but the using the Elecraft gear, you should follow the Elecraft manual - 
it behaves differently than most transceivers and has special provisions 
for data modes that are absent in other transceivers.

The Fldigi manual is written for the 'other' transceivers because they 
are more plentiful.

How do you find that? Is that just a 'given' at a particular frequency for the KX3 with the filter option installed?
