Same here, Dave. I operate for fun. When signals are so bad I have to crank in $300 filters, it's time to find someone stronger or QRT. I can't imagine a QSO so important that I have to strain to hear it. I had a KAF2 and had a chance to sell it to save for a KDSP2. I found I could still do what I do with the built-in crystal filters.
Others have other requirements, of course.

Does the basic K2's crystal filtering work well enough that you (any of you) would be happy with no AF filtering or does the AF/DSP filtering add enough that you wouldn't want to be without it? - Keith KD1E - _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
