G'day folks, <snipo> Let's widen the question to make it KAF2 or KDSP2 or NOTHING? 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? <snipo>
Unless there has been a circuit change in the stock K2 AF chain, the KAF2 has the advantage of introducing a fixed low-pass filter which really cleans up the hf hiss in the audio. It made listening to SSB a much nicer experience. Given the choice of just a KAF2 or nothing I would take the KAF2 every time if only for this. I believe someone mentioned that the KDSP2 tracks the crystal filter, it doesn't, and it always defaults to the first (af) filter settings on power up. I could live without the KDSP2 but in its absence not the KAF2 for reasons mentioned above, I have both. On another subject, what has happened to the Logger32 site, the domain has been out of action for weeks.
