My Yaesu FT-857D has bit the dust and will be sold on eBay as a broken
unit and I think I'll be replacing it with an Icom IC-7000. The
filters still seem to work and figured I'd offer them up locally
before they go to eBay on Sunday evening.
Filter 1 is the International Radio Corp. #720-F 455.0kHz 2000Hz for $85
Filter 2 is the International Radio Corp. #705-F 455.0kHz 500Hz for $85
Take them both off my hands for $150
I found the 2kHz filter great for cutting down adjacent QRM on a
crowded 75 meter band. I often listened to the 3820 Maryland
Emergency Phone Net while another group was on 3818. I could still
hear the 3818 group, but the filter made hearing the MEPN much easier.

These filters work with the Yaesu FT-857, FT-897, & FT-817. The
following radios use the same IF but I'm not 100% sure that these
filters will fit it without modification - FT-1000, FT-1000MP, & the
FT-847. The CW filter may also work for the FT-2000, but again, I
don't know if it will fit by default.
Any questions - feel free to e-mail me joseph.durnal at gmail.com
