Keith:
I also enjoy the flexibility of an external AF filter, and have used
an Autek QF1 for over 20 years.
However, my K2 has such a quiet AF output compared to my previous
rigs that the hum from the QF1s internal power supply becomes quite
noticeable and very annoying when I use it with the K2.
Maybe the QF1A is quieter,

Hey 'Crafters,
I'm debating between the KAF2 or an outboard audio filter for my K2.
Possible choices are the SCAF-1 and an Autek QF1A.
My goal is to greatly reduce the hiss that is there in the headphones
when the narrow CW filters are engaged. I'd also like to add some CW
selectivity. A notch would be great too.
KAF2 has the benefit of being integrated into the rig but doesn't offer
lots of flexibility. The others are external but give you more control
over the filtering.
How well does the KAF2 kill the hiss? I assume it does great for that.
Does it add any noise back in?
