K3 selectivity display?

[Barry N1EU]

Is there any numeric indication of the K3 rx bandwidth on the display?
 I see the trapezoidal analog display of relative bandwidth, but if
the dsp bandwidth is set to 300hz, does the K3 indicate such directly
to the operator?

Thanks & 73,
Barry N1EU

Yes, the width, shift, locut or hicut value is displayed numerically as
you rotate the controls.

hi Barry - Look at the owners manual for the Display page (in my copy here rev B1 it is on page 12).

On the lower right of the display are 7 digits, which are used to display a multitude of things,
normally the VFO B setting - but also the CW decode and parameter changes.

Just sitting there the K3 does not display the BW, but if you turn the WIDTH knob this lower right
display will show you the setting as it changes. This is also the case for the POWER setting and
many other settings. When you stop turning the knob the display reverts back to VFO B (or CW or DATA
decode if you have that enabled.)

When you change the bandwidth, the current width is briefly displayed in
the VFO B display.

Thanks for all the clarification.  It's good that bandwidth is
displayed at adjustment time, but it would be great if there were some
way (eventually?) to display it full time.  Seems like in cw/ssb
contesting and dx'ing, it's a parameter I want to be intimately aware
of.  I realize the work-around will be to adjust it in order to read
it.

hi Barry - just based on my limited contest operating, the trapezoid seems sufficient to remind me
of where I am with BW and shift. Also, the XFIL display helps because you know what you have
installed in each slot - for example if XFIL4 is 400Hz, I know when XFIL4 is lit that I am less than
or equal to 400, and the trapezoid gives relative BW size from there.

Hope I am making sense, it would be much easier to just show you! - jeff wk6i

I keep wondering what filter width I have selected - maybe this could be a
DISP / VFOB option later?
