[1000mp] 2.0 SSB Filters for the Mark V

Mon, 11 Feb 2002 12:07:31 -0500

Mike:

I found the INRAD 1800 Hz filters a better choice. 

With proper use of the "Shift" control, audio intelligibility
is excellent. (If you haven't tried adjusting the "Shift" control
with your current filters, you should probably try that first!)

My application is contesting, where getting the information
is *far* more important than fidelity.
