Excellent!! Thanks for taking the time to write and for the in-depth explanation. I am constantly amazed (and grateful) for the expertise available here on the reflector.

I will be working to correct the problem this weekend. I have used Spectrogram (though obviously not well) and have a copy. I like your idea of using the OPT1 filter and will give that a try.

Thanks again and 73,

John,

That is not a consequence of any construction error, but a consequence of your filter alignment.

When you align a wide filter for either CW or SSB, do NOT CENTER it. Use Spectrogram and align it so that the low frequency edge of the passband cuts off above zero frequency (I prefer 200 Hz at the lowest corner). In other words, an 1800 Hz wide CW filter should have an audio response from 200 to 2000 Hz.
