PF->RX EQ setting on K3

For CW reception of weak 160m DX, I recently tried tweaking up the RX EQ
so that the sidetone frequency is enhanced and other frequencies are
attenuated. I think this works quite well as a primitive extra audio
filter. While the settings are great for CW, they are no good
(obviously) for speech. Does anyone know if such a "home brew" AF filter
CW response curve setting could be stored using say PF1 button, and then
be reset to a flat response using say PF2? Otherwise it gets fiddly and
time-consuming to keep tweaking each of the eight filter frequencies.

This would be handy

In fact digi setting can also be different. May be saving EQ settings along
with other settings as "profile" in M1-M4 would be handy. Rec button could be
used for resetting to default.

Re: PF->RX EQ setting on K3

abt a month ago I wrote a long response on why not a parametric eq
for cw ??? but trashed it .....

for cw would not a parametric implementation be better than the
"graphic" audio eq ?
or is that already happening in the dsp ???

Hi,
You can use the rit CLR button to reset to a flat response. I'd like to see an equaliser memory setting for each mode. I'm getting tired of wondering why the NR isn't working as well as usual on SSB, only to find it's because I've peaked the rx equalisers 800Hz response for CW.
