[Elecraft] Idiom Press SCAF-1

I use the SCAF-1 with my K2 rigs one has the KAF2 and the other has DSP.  I 
find it works very well and complements an already excellent rig.  There is 
absolutely no ringing on CW.  For SSB, I find it takes the edge off the high 
end (hiss) when conditions are noisy.  I don't use it with my K2s all the 
time but there are occasions when it is very helpful.

I also use the SCAF-1 on many of my older rigs and it really makes a 
difference in eliminating a lot of noise and in many cases can drowned out a 
heterodyne by playing with the amount of filter capture.
