You have chosen the bread-and-butter choices. You may find they are all you need. You can add others later, if needed.
Could you go with less? Personally, I only use the sub-receiver for chasing split DX. I don't need razor sharp filtering - in fact, I need to hear a broad spectrum so I can figure out where the DX is listening. Therefore, I elected no special filters in the sub. If you use the sub for diversity reception, you probably need to filter it up. Buck k4ia On 9/25/2012 1:20 PM, Stan AE7UT wrote: > I'm asking for a little help with filter choices.
