YES!  That's exactly what I'm talking about with respect to it being

The best filter or audio device ever made is between your ears...including your
ears.  Amazing piece of work.
As I grow older (Rats!), I've had to have some help with digital hearing aids
and good radios like the K3.  Makes

the good CW ops use a lot of
biological filtering.
