[TVARC] WJST-X: Just How Much Bandwidth is Being Decoded?

[George Briggs]

I’m using “fake it” with my K3, not “split”.  I have seen KH7Z providing signal reports, etc, and a wide range of frequencies with stations calling them. I use DATA mode for FT-8, and my WIDTH control is cranked wide open.
Of course, I haven’t worked them yet!😁
