[Yaesu] Inrad Filters for a Yeasu FT1000.

[Hans Remeeus]

Dear Gul,

When your main activity SSB is, than I would recommend the Inrad 1.8 kHz 
filter.
Or 2.1 kHz when you like local communication instead of DX, pile-up and 
contest.

Big difference between Yaesu and Inrad... Well; IMHO there is a 
significant difference in terms of the shape factor.

When you will get a good price your second hand Yaesu filters, it is 
advisable to buy Inrad filters instead.

By all means I would install the Inrad Roofing Filter!

I installed the Inrad Roofing Filter and the following IF-filters in my 
1000D:
2800/2800 Hz
2100/2100 Hz
400/500 Hz
250/250 Hz

And I replaced the Murata filter in the Sub Rx with the Inrad 2800 and 
also installed the Inrad 500 Hz filter in the Sub Rx.

If you want I could send you some photo's of the filter setup.
