16:29: *** WY3T is now online ***

16:29 WW8II-BRUCE: Just static here\Bill are you using the Elecraft radio and if so what CW filter are you using I use the 200 Hz filter turned down to .05 BW

16:30 W4DEX-DEX: Called CQ multiple times.....no locals heard

16:31 W4DEX-DEX: Heard a very weak SSB signal...wasn't Rob's voice

16:31 K0AWU-BILL: 400hz filter full BW

16:32 K0AWU-BILL: External panadapter variable BW there too

16:32 WY3T-TIM: 89 deg overcast . . . noise S4-5 SSB / S2-3 CW . . no static crashes today

16:32 KG0VL-JEFF: That is a good question, was curious to what others use for cw filter bandwidth here?

16:32 K0AWU-BILL: Yes K3S

16:32 AB4AM-ROB: QRN rough today

16:32 WW8II-BRUCE: I have found that when I turn it down to .05 I eleiminate all the static and still hear the CW fine but then that is me and the way I have my K3s set up

16:33 AB4AM-ROB: 200hz now

16:33 K5HFG: I hear occasional SSB but no copy

16:33 WY3T-TIM: Heard AB4AM calling deep in the noise

16:34 KG0VL-JEFF: That is pretty narrow?

16:34 KG0VL-JEFF: I use 300 hz
