I've been suspecting my filters are drifting too!  A friend of mine had his 
lower SSB filter go intermittent this weekend.  I have a few Drake rigs and the 
audio is not right coming out of a couple of them.  I think the crystals in the 
filters are drifting and producing weird shaped output curves for the filters.  
Kind of scares me when you consider new filters will cost around $130 each and 
you need two of them!

With no incoming signals, including crystal calibrator, and with C-130 adjusted 
for equal sounding "white noise" when switching between 
Lower" and "Upper" I am unable to zero the S-meter in both sidebands.  It will 
zero with one or the other and then the other is off by 1 to 1 1/2 S units or 
so.  I can adjust  C-130 so the S- meter zeros in both sidebands but then the 
"white noise"  has a different  sound in each sideband. 
  
My other TR-4CW/RIT works as it should in all respects to S-meter zero, C-130 
adjustment, and "white noise": sound. 
  
I'm starting to think one or  both filters may be the root of this evil but do 
not have a scope t o visually look around. .I'm convinced I'm overlooking 
something.  What might it be?
