I have been thinking about finally replacing the stock receive filter in my personal FT-847, but i can't decide which to go with. I have played around with another 847 that had a Collins filter in it and it really seemed to help a lot during a good opening on 6m. Here are the choices i am considering.
Collins Mechanical 2.0 Khz
Crystal Filter 2.1 Khz from Inrad
It has also been suggested that i consider the 1.8 Khz crystal filter from Inrad as well. I realize that this comes down to ones personal taste but i wanted opinions before i buy. Mostly i am concerned with performance on 6m, 2m, 70cm SSB. But i also occassionally listen around on HF as well.
What say you??
