Since Wayne and Eric are always looking for ideas from the peanut
gallery, here's my first K2 firmware suggestion. When DXing and operating split (VFO A tuned to the DX station, VFO B on the QSX frequency), it would be nice to be able to use a narrow filter on VFO A while using a wider filter on VFO B. This would allow DXers to keep the DX signal free of QRM with a narrow filter while tuning for stations working the DX using a wider filter. That's my operating preference--narrow filter on the DX's frequency, wide filter while searching for just the right QSX frequency in pileups. Still having a great time with K2/100 S/N 5023, if I bought a second rig right now it'd be another K2. Good luck to all Elecrafters trying to work 6O0N over the next two weeks. 73, John, N7ON _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [hidden email] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

I second this motion!
The only thing I can think of that might be a problem is maintaining QSK performance. That and the unknown ammount of area left for addional code in the firmware itself. Wayne... A motion has been made and seconded. Can we take a vote and then a response from the chair?
