[Elecraft] APF vs 10 Hz DSP, why they don't sound the same

[Al Lorona]

Yes, I ran the analysis on the circuit as shown, without the tuning control. If anyone wants to pore through the schematics and tell me the value of the control as well as where to put it, I'll be happy to run the analysis at the two ends of the range of the control.
 
What I had wanted to do with my information was remove any mystery surrounding the topology of the circuit in the FT-1000. Now that we know what it is, it may help someone to try and duplicate it with hardware, software, or whatever.

The APF filter is active on the Main Rx, CW mode only.  However, Fc is not 
confined to 1025 Hz; with the front panel "APF" control, it's adjustable 
roughly over the range of the CW BFO offset when the filter switch is 
engaged.
