K3: Hi-Cut/Lo-Cut not available

[Bob KD7YZ]

Howdy K3' people:

I've searched the manual and pushed/held/tapped a lot of K3 buttons.

Somewhere in the recent past,  I have lost ability to TAP "Shift" or
"Width" to get to be able to contorl Filter's Hi-Cut/ Low-Cut .

The green LED always remain on "Shift" and the other one on "Width".

Holding either will only go to "Norm"  or "I/I"I .

What mode are you in?  Go to SSB and try it again.

It sounds like you may have the situation described below, from K3
Owner's Manual D10 Page 58.


 SIG RMV [T] NOR (Advanced) OPTIONAL SPURIOUS SIGNAL REMOVAL: Can  be
 used to remove fast-tuning receiver “birdies” that are audible  even
 with an antenna connected. (An alternative in SSB mode is to turn on
 auto-notch.)  Limitations: Applies  only to  CW/SSB/DATA modes,  and
 only to the main receiver.

***** In CW and DATA modes, SIG RMV should  not be used in
combination with a CONFIG:PB CTRL setting of Shif t=.01.*****


 PB CTRL  Shift=.05  (Advanced)  Specifies  the  granularity  of the
 passband SHIFT control on a per mode basis: .05 (default) or .01
kHz.
 Select the desired mode first, then select the desired  granularity.

 *****Limitations: Only applies  to CW and  DATA modes. Selecting .01
kHz reduces  the  SHIFT  range  and disables  HI  CUT  and  LO CUT.
May interfere with spurious signal removal (CONFIG:SIG  RMV), i.e.
“removed” signals may not be shifted the right amount, and thus may
again be audible. *****

Hi Bob,

This feature is disabled in CW with either one or both of the following settings.
if CONFIG:CW QRQ is turned to ON
or if CONFIG:PB CTRL is set to SHIFT-.01

A while ago I did try to remove birdies on 144 and 432 xvtr, the K3
versions. tuning around the EME area was a nightmare of birdies. The
auto remove tool did nothing for the transverters. Either it's not
designed to do that or I'm not designed t try the tool.

PB CTRL was Shift =01 now it's .05 on SSB/CW/Data

Anyway,  Now I have lo-cut and hi-cut back   in CW & SSB & Data

Thanks a bunch!
