[1000mp] CW Filter Choice?

Fri, 30 Jan 2004 12:08:30 -0500

Harry,

I also vote for the 400 Hz Inrad filter.
The factory 500 Hz filter is second choice, but a bit wider on skirts as
well as peak.
250 Hz filters are too narrow for anything but heavy DX and Contesting work
where the station wanted is inbetween lots of other signals in my personal
opinion.

Good luck    -    George - K8GG
