[Elecraft] K3S question

[Dale Boresz]

Hello Noel,

Which roofing filter did you have engaged at the time? If it was
significantly wider than the minimum bandwidth needed to accurately decode
a RTTY signal, then pumping of the AGC could occur which is likely what you
heard. I don't operate RTTY so I don't know which roofing filter would be
optimum, but I'm sure other RTTY op's can help.
