K3 Bandwidth in data mode

[Larry Boekeloo]

I can't find this in the manual so here goes.....

Any ideas how to increase the bandwidth when the K3 is in data mode?  Right now, it's will only open to 200 hz and it's too narrow to tune around the band looking for rtty signals.

Thanks.

Larry, KN8N

LOoks like you haven't assigned your wider filters in data mode so the K3 knows it can use them. You can do this through the K3 Utility.

Houston, we have a problem.  When I go to data mode, PSK31 or RTTY, I  
have the full bandwidth of the selected roofing filter displayed on  
the DM780 waterfall.  I ran through all the different data modes and  
there are subtle changes but nothing like you describe. The only way I  
can duplicate your problem in by adjusting the WIDTH control which I  
keep set at 2.8 for my 2.8 filter, 1.0 for my selected filter for data  
modes.

Thanks for all of the responses.  I have the filters set correctly now and I've made several contacts already this morning in BPSK and RTTY.

Thanks again.
