Dave , I do not know anything about filters for the 746 but I do know
your current filters are good enough for...

 I'd like to get an idea of what the group thinks an appropriate filter
 choice might be for me. I have an IC-746 (non-Pro) which currently has a 250
 Hz and a 500 Hz in the 9 Mhz filter slots. I use the 250 Hz filter for CW
 and the 500 Hz for PSK31 and RTTY. The 455 Khz filter slot is currently
 empty.

 I use the rig very seldom on SSB, but was thinking of adding the 1.9 Khz SSB
 filter in order to close the barn door the 746 has when wide open in SSB
 mode.

 Would this filter combination work? Has anyone ever had this filter group in
 a 746, and with what kind of performance?

 Finally, should I look at the usual Icom filters or would I be better off
 going to Inrad? The Inrad filters are a bit less expensive. There are a lot
 more choices in the Inrad line, but unsure of which one to consider from
 that group!

 Tnx es 73
