I'm using a KX2/KXPA100 at 40W on a Win10 laptop with WSJT-X 2.1.0 for FT8.
Antenna is a G5RV at 40ft with base ATU 150ft away. I've been advised
elsewhere that "Fake It" is a better choice than "Rig" for Split Mode: "it
depends on what filter the radio has. Most are 2.4Khz (300-2700). If so you
would most likely need to be between around 600 to 2300. It also depends on
the skirts of the filter on where power will drop off and you can maybe have
harmonics. If you want to limit your transmit audio to 1500-2000 you may not
be able to find a clear place to transmit. If you have CAT control then fake
it automatically will adjust your transmit audio frequency to be in the
sweet spot of the filter."
I understand the KX2 filter is DSP Filtering: 50-4000 Hz, so am not sure
about using "Fake It" or "Rig" and would appreciate comment. Thanks!
