[1000mp] INRAD 2.8 Filter Install Gone Bad

[Bob Martin]

I need a little help.  I install the 2.8 filters in my Mark V.  My first
surprise was to discover that the OEM 2.4 for the 8.215Mhz was solder =
in,
since I was inform my many that the factory filter were plug-in. =
Needless to
say that this discourage me from replacing the 2.4=92s with the 2.8=92s. =
 Not
because of the soldering, but I didn=92t want to get into removing the =
board.
So giving up any transmit benefits I just install the 2.8=92s in the =
optional
slots thinking that I might take on the board issue later. I had no =
2.0=92s
filters installed so I use slot 1 and 3. Now to the problem.  I went to =
the
menu settings and turn on 5-1 and 5.5.  Now when I select Nar1 or Nar2
depending on my 5.0 setting I think the filters are coming on, but I am =
not
sure and there is very little signal on the s-meter.  Also my CAT =
software
is not seeing the 2.8 filters.  What have I done wrong or have I =
forgotten
to change something.
