I also think the sync det works great. My VFO locks 4 or 5 Hz high
using the 13 KHz filter. The 2.7 KHz filter locks right on the money.
Switching to the narrower filter will also lock signals that are too
weak to lock on the wide filter. Not that you'd want to use the 2.7
filter for listening to AM broadcasts.
