Hello, still having trouble finding a (working) audio filter.

I have a Professional Marconi Laboratory type Signal Generator that I'm
willing to swap for a QUALITY CW audio filter.  Units such as the Datong
FL-2/FL-3, Timewave DSP9+/DSP59+, MFJ-784B (MUST be "B" model), Super-SCAF
units, NIR-12 or similar are suitable depending on their specs.  POSSIBLY
even a "mint" Autek QF-1A IF you help with shipping costs of the generator.
MUST have good sharp CW selectivity of 100Hz or better and be in good
condition.  NO RADIOSHACK UNITS NEED APPLY!

Please send a FULL description of your unit in first email.

What I have.
Marconi Signal Generator Model TF2016A.
ALL solid state, no "boatanchor" here.
Frequency Range: 10kHz to 120 MHz in 12 ranges.

     1.  Slide rule dial.
     2.  Carrier Range Switch (12 ranges).
     3.  Tune Control.
     4.  Fine tune control.
     3.  Extra Fine tune (10 turn) control
Modulation types:
     1.  CW.
     2.  AM, 0-100%
     3.  FM, variable, full scale dev. settings of 5, 25 & 75kHz.
     4.  BOTH AM & FM simultaniously, individually adjustable.
Modulation: Internal 400 & 1000 Hz & external input up to 100kHz.
Output Level: Up to 2 Volts. Range .2uV to 2 Volts.
Output leveling for constant output level across Frequency Range.
Attenuators:  Internal 120dB in 10db steps and variable 10dB.
Outputs:
       1.  BNC RF output on front panel.
       2.  BNC Internal Mod out (400 & 1000 Hz) on back.
       3.  "Counter" output on back (High level RF output)
Inputs:
       1.  BNC External Mod In on back panel.
       2.  BNC Sync/Sweep in on back panel (can be used as sweep gen).
       3.  24-32VDC input (for battery operation)

COSMETICS:  Front panel "very nice", Top and bottom covers are repainted.

This unit operates as it should, is VERY stable after short warmup and is
suitable for alignment/troubleshooting of AM,SSB, CW and FM (narrow or wide)
receivers.

SHIPPING ETC:
Each individual to pack well and ship insured at $100.00 insurance minimum.
IF your unit is an Autek QF-1A etc I may need some help on shipping costs of
the Sig Gen as the generator is worth more.
