Hi Bill, My K3 #4257 had the 13KHz 8 pole, the 6KHz 8 pole, the 2.8KHz 8 Pole filter + the 2.1KHz 8 pole & originally, the 400Hz 8 pole CW filter. I swapped my 400Hz CW filter for the 1.8KHz 8 pole SSB filter I have now with a fellow Elecraft owner here on the list. Once I got it, I found that I was using the 1.8KHz filter more than the 2.1 for both contesting and rag chewing to the point where now I have removed the 2.1KHz filter due to non use.
YMMV but I guess it's down to individual tastes and hearing ability. 73 de Jeff Cochrane - VK4BOF East Innisfail QLD, Australia K3 #4257, P3 #1629, KPA-500 #161 ----- Original Message ----- From: "W2BLC" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, January 14, 2012 12:06 PM Subject: [Elecraft] Real world use of 1.8 filter >I am in the process of kicking tires (pre-order time) and wonder if I > would be well advised to get the 2.8 8-pole filter and the 1.8 > additional filter for SSB? > > Most of my operating is SSB rag chew on 75 and 40 meters.
