K3: RF in compared to AF out, in dB?

John Harper AE5X
Does anyone know if any charts or graphs exist online that illustrate the effect of IF bandwidth at the audio stage?

I know Clifton Labs compares various IF bandwidths with different roofing filters - I'm looking for a visual representation of audio output vs. RF freq in order to get an idea of how quickly (in dB) the audio gets attenuated as you tune away from zero beat, for a given bandwidth...say, 150Hz dialed in.

Thanks,

John AE5X

Why wouldn't Spectrogram show you that?  Real time right on your
computer, and it's free.

You can also use the AFV/dBV function in the K3, see Owner's Manual for
details on how to use.
