Auto notch K3

[WR5DC]

 

 

    While on 75 or 40 SSB when someone tunes up a bit off freq and I turn
the Auto Notch on it distorts the audio of the station I am listening to.
I have not been able to find a way to adjust the depth of the notch but I am
new to the K3.     This is the first radio I have ever had that I have to
toggle the AN on and off during a transmission.  On most rigs you can leave
it on 24/7 with no degradation of receive audio.. Am I missing something?

 

Thanks guys,

Listening to a SSB net on 40M this afternoon using my K3S, I toggled the
NTCH on and off during several transmissions and did not notice and
appreciable distortion.  There may be certain combinations of RF gain
and signal strength both on the interfering signal and the desired
signal which may produce more or less distortion.

Unfortunately, I have the same experience with AN on my K3 on SSB.  For
the most part, I hold to engage the manual notch and chase the carriers
manually.
