[Drakelist] experience with TR-7 CW filter
I am considering buying a 300Hz filter for the TR7 and wonder if any of you guys out there have experience with that narrow filter. Does it ring excessively or have excessive insertion loss? Also, would you recommend an new InRad filter rather than a used Drake original filter?

Re: [Drakelist] experience with TR-7 CW filter
I've got the 400hz InRad (I think that's it) and it's quite narrow. I can't imagine needing more narrow than that. I note no excessive loss with the 400hz Inrad or the 500hz Drake...

Re: [Drakelist] experience with TR-7 CW filter
I have the 500 and 300 Hz filters in my TR7. I found the tuning to be a bit sharp with the narrow filter using the TR7 VFO, but with my DDS VFO the tuning is very slow and the filter is much easier to use. It doesn't ring any more or less than any other narrow filter I've ever heard and I haven't found the insertion loss to be a problem. 73, Floyd - K8AC - Original Message - From: Dennis Monticelli To: drakelist@zerobeat.net Sent: Monday, August 10, 2009 2:06 PM Subject: [Drakelist] experience with TR-7 CW filter I am considering buying a 300Hz filter for the TR7 and wonder if any of you guys out there have experience with that narrow filter.
