K3 Audio Equalization RX

George VA3EF
Hi,
One thing I love about my old ft1000d is the APF for CW.
I have read K3 OM long time before getting one and following statement was very  impressing:

"RX EQ +0 dB, each band

Receiver audio graphic equalizer. VFO A is used as an 8-band bar-graph, where each
character shows the boost or cut ( -16 dB to +16 dB in 1 dB increments) for a given
AF band. The 8 bands are 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.2, 2.4 and 3.2 kHz. Tap 1 -8 to
select an AF band. VFO A selects boost/cut. Tap CLR to reset all bands to +0 dB."

Therefore I was expecting at least similar CW Audio results from K3. For example, if
I set 800 Hz band to +16db boost and all others to -16dB cut, I would hear distinct peak at 800Hz.
Well, this is not happening. I did try to set AFX, but no difference....
What am I missing? Is there any other special settings to be set or I'm expecting something
that does not exist? Any idea ?
