Jerry,
thank you for making valid points. As a beginner and future rag-chewer
rather than contester, the 250 Hz filters are out. To put a 1.8 khz filter
in the stage 1 slot - would that work?

The TRX is still with the seller. No Ten Tec transceiver is type approve for
Thailand where I am these days. And having 50 ohm coax cable of 3 ft or more
length carries already a jail term of 5 years. But then, I would guess they
would deport such an offender after a few weeks without the option. And type
approval would cost 25,000 Baht or >$ 800 as the regulator makes no
difference between commercial and amateur requests :X

SSB is of less interest to me. But would it still be usable with a 1.8 khz
filter?

Wednesdays, I had 2 CW QSOs after years of inactivity. Botched them horribly
and it was reported on the DX cluster. Hadn't thought of that - but better
clean up my act - and fast!

This is the item:

Thanks also to two kind OM who gave advice and support off the list. Ham
spirit is alive and i look forward to bringing the Omni on the air.
