[K3] RE: Custom 700 Hz 8-Pole K3 Filters (by INRAD)

Gary W. Hvizdak
P.S.  The filters retail for $145 each + S&H, with S&H being as follows ...
o   Domestic = $6
o   Canada & Mexico = $14
o   All other international destinations (one or two filters) = $18
o   All other international destinations (more than two filters) = $34

Out of curiosity, what would one use or need  a 700hz filter for?

I use mine for digital modes.   There are times where a 500 hz could be too
narrow.   That is the reason I purchased mine.

Hmm, wouldn't the DSP filter be good enough for this purpose?
Except for obnoxious PACTOR, there are generally not the 40db over S9
signals to reject.

In reply to this post by KD8NNU
Thanks for the response. I guess I don't do enough digital modes to think
about that. Usually 500 or ssb/dsp  filter is good for me.

In reply to this post by alsopb
In theory yes.   But there can be a lot of signals in the IF and if you
struggling to get a weak one out then the RX is better with a narrow filter.
I don’t know the math behind this or the electronic design details but I can
tell its better by my decodes after I added the filter.

It is the same reason that last year at Dayton after a discussion with Wayne
I also purchased a 200hz filter.

Re: [K3] RE: Custom 700 Hz 8-Pole K3 Filters (by INRAD)

Scott Monks
In reply to this post by John_N1JM
I find the main benefit during contests for S&P and for simplex Dx pileups. Using them with Lo-High adjustment gives results, especially since I don't have a directional antenna.

They are not a cure-all, but they are helpful.  Of course the DSP cannot do everything by itself or there would be no need for filters for CW.
