I didn't bother about paying/asking for matched default filters for my KRX3. The one in the main board has a -0.93kHz offset and the one in the KRX3 is -0.83kHz. Shifting them both to -0.88kHz seems to make no difference to performance - would you expect a 50Hz shift in a nominal -6dB b/w of

Stewart, You are correct that the importance of the offset is inversely proportional to the filter width. A 50 Hz shift not make much difference with the 2.7 or 2.8 kHz width, but it certainly will make a big difference at a 200 Hz width. 73, Don W3FPR GW0ETF wrote: I didn't bother about
