BTW: Carlos, N4IS has 308(?) confirmed on 160...few in the world
have more...he has been a member of SFDXA for about 25+ years. His
company manufactured and sold the Waller Flag for years...

I hope
everyone is able to see Carlos N4IS, presentation of an
experimental acoustic CW Filter he calls the 3-S.....at the
SFDXA Meeting tonight.
I have been fortunate to have been using a prototype for a
couple of months now. It is not anything like any filter you've
seen before visually or mechanically. Here is a note I sent to
Carlos a short while ago regarding an experience I had using it.
"Carlos
I just had to tell you...the TX9A today was just a bit too weak
to copy on 24.894. But with the 3-S online I was able to hear my
call and work him...then an hour later he's on 18074. Once again
way too weak...I called him and he came back to someone... I
just could not make out the letters let alone the callsign...then
I turned the 3-S on, I tuned it, and I heard my call, it was
me he was calling!...I quickly sent my report and
got the "TU". So in the log on both bands thanks
to the 3-S."
I planned on being there tonight, but something unexpected came
up yesterday last minute, and I cannot attend. I wanted to relay
this quick story to attest to Carlo's remarkable years of
research and findings.
AGAIN: It is not anything like
any filter you've seen before visually or mechanically.
Attend The Meeting or at least the ZOOM for this presentation
