Shane: With respect to a CW filter...
If you are a "casual" cw op (or plan to be), then I would not get any "cw" filter. The 2.7kc roofing filter is already narrower than 99% of everything else available out there (for a roofing filter). As for the final BW, use the DSP and you can crank it down to 50hz (really, really narrow!). It works really well too. I am an AVID cw op and I use the 500hz filter (5 pole) because 99% of my operating is DX Contesting. Outside of contest, I think that you would be hard pressed to find a situation (outside of Europe on 40m or low band DX pileups) where you would "need" a narrow CW roofing filter. If you simply "must have" a cw filter, I would suggest either the 500 or 400. You already know which one I use. de Doug KR2Q _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
