[Elecraft] K3 SSB Filters

[David Smith]

Been interesting reading the comments on SSB contesting and filtering.  As a serious SSB contester from way back in the 80s, side rejection from other contesters (especially where we are all bunched up on 40 meters and also when the shortwave broadcast stations come on) has always been a topic of conversation with my fellow ssb ops -- which radio to buy, which filter to use, dsp, etc.  
I have the 2.1 khz, 8 pole roofing filter installed in by my K3s BTW.  With that said, I think the bleeding over QRM from other ssb stations (especially on 40 meters) is just the “nature of the beast” with ssb contesting.  And boy is it a killer on the ears during and after a contest
Anxious to hear other comments from other.
