For adjusting CW filter BFO, and for looking maximum
peak with KAF2 I'm used spectrogamm on my PC and XG1
test oscillator. With spectrogramm it's very easy!
Now the weak signals on 160 and 80m-band I'm copy
very strong with KAF2!

Priwet Alexander!

         Would you mind sharing with us what
filter parameters worked best for you?

P.S.  KI6WX has some KAF2 measurements here:

Yes, I agree, I use it almost all of the time. My preferred filters for
casual tuning is 1.00 kHz Xtal-filter combined with AF1. That gives a nice
reduction in noise and also rounded filter slopes that makes it easy to hear
stations even if they are a bit off. If noise or interference increases,
then I switch to 0.40 or 0.10 X-tal filter.
