[Elecraft] Wrong Filter Question - 8 pole vs. 5 Pole Filters

[Lee Buller]

I asked the wrong filter question...or...what was on my mind and how it came out my fingers did not jive.

Which is better a 5 pole filter or an 8 pole filter.  Supposedly the 8 pole would have sharper skirts....and for only 20 more bucks...well....I would like to know the difference between the two filters.  Is it worth the 20 bucks?  I am sure it is, but as you all know there is some economic rumbling and need to watch the pennies.

This is not about cost....it is about what is the difference between the two types of filters.

In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply.  If you don't have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it.  If you can't find any Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense.  Is Common Sense divine?
