Unless you run with WIDTH under 300, you're going to have problems with strong signals overloading the AGC. That's what the roofing filters are for. The 1.8 and 2.8 will allow signals you can't even hear to affect the AGC. The 250 is fine, but you'll miss stations outside your passband responding to your CQ. For CW contesting, you really need the 500 Hz or 400 Hz filter. 73, Dick WC1M _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
