The 746 allows you to select any filter for any mode, thank goodness!!

    Has anyone tried using either a 250 Hz or 500 Hz filter for PSK31
    reception? My Icom IC-746 (non-Pro) has no filters installed, and is
    wide as a barn door on USB for PSK31. I wondered if either of these
    filters would help, or would they be too narrow?

    The pass-band shift does a fair job of eliminating QRM from one side
    or the other of the selected frequency, but when there are two very
    strong signals within 2 Khz on each side at the same time, they just
    aren't effective on both.

    Any input appreciated!

    Thanks in advance es 73
