Hi Dave,

To quote from your posting of 5/22/2003:


<< My IMPRESSION was that the PRO2 has much nicer very narrow selectivity,
but
ALSO the PRO (one) is much nicer using the manual setup to use the i.f.
shift and make a narrow filter. >>

The Pro2 has not in any way lessened the capability offered in the original
Pro to "build your own filter" using Twin PBT for a higher shape factor vs.
the Filter menu and BPF indicator for a lower shape factor. Rather, it has
combined this capability with a new feature allowing selection of SOFT and
SHARP CW and SSB filter shape factors.

There is a detailed discussion of this in my IC-756ro/Pro II User Review.
