K3 - Changing bandwidt NORM presets?

[Paul - WW2PT]

I've been working a bit of PSK 31 and Olivia in DATA-A mode lately. I generally keep the bandwidth wide open but occasionally crunch it down to something narrower and shift the center freq when in QSO. I'd like to be able to use the NORM function to reset the filter to max width (FL1) and center freq. of 1.50 kHz, but it chooses my FL4 filter (400 Hz) by default.

Didn't see anything in the CONFIG options that looked like it would let me override the default NORM settings by mode. Is this something that's possible with the K3? Or maybe yet another wish list item for a future firmware rev?

My workaround is to use the I/II filters presets, keeping one wide and the other narrow, but I'd prefer the NORM option...

Hi Paul,

You can have two custom NORM settings per mode in addition to the  
factory default NORM. See the section titled "Filter Normalization  
(NORM)" in the owners manual.  (It's on page 24 of the D4 rev.)

That said, they're not quite as easy to use as the factory NORM  
settings since you have to hold the NORM knob and then rotate it to  
select which of your custom NORM settings you want (left for 1, right  
for 2).

Tnx Joe and Tom,

Works as advertised! I didn't see it in the manual, appreciate you pointing me in the right direction.
