K3 NR triggering

I agree with N6MQL, after working with 3.27 awhile now, 3.25 made CW better.
I only have the 250Hz filter, and it doesn't do as well with NR as wide
settings... and the wide filter setting makes the NR shine. It may even work
better than 3.25 NR narrow overall, I don't know.

My constant operations with the K3 in CW were to sit at 250 to 50 Hz and put
NR on if I needed weak signal enhancement.. which it would do.. and NR
setting 2-3 (as others have mentioned) was the sweet spot. I suppose I could
change my operations to work in the wide filter where NR is good, and only
go narrow if adjacent signals make me do so. Being an old dog I hate new
tricks but will come along eventually.

Just to reiterate my earlier posting, the next beta release of the K3
mcu/dsp code will have -BOTH- NR methods available. (Those from 3.25 and
3.27. ) You really -can- have it your way. :-)

You will be able to scan though the same 16 3.27 settings as now,
followed by the set of 16 3.25 style settings as you rotate the knob
when setting NR level. Plus the last NR setting for CW and Voice modes
will be saved independently.

Who says we don't try harder in Aptos? ;-)

Re: K3 NR triggering

Man that will be a lot of settings but after reading all the posts I'd
had exactly the same idea but just didn't post it. Having a little
down time here after kayaking back from the neighbors on the other
side of the bay for lunch. Figured I'd look in and catch up. I'm
anxiously awaiting the ability to have all the NR options and the bass
back!
Ok now that I'm mostly caught up the phone goes back off before I
accidentally click on the icon that brings up the work email.
