[1000mp] 2.0 SSB Filters for the Mark V

Mon, 11 Feb 2002 13:25:18 -0500

Hi Jeff.....

Thanks for the info.....Do you use the digital tracking with the shift
control?....Does just the analog filtering work as well?......What menu
settings did you use for the receiver, 300-2800?.....Does the Mark V
recognize the 1.8 SSB filter within it's software, or do you have to do
anything special?......Did you leave the IF gain set as per default?....

Thanks very much for your input.....

A new Mark V owner.....
