RXant, NGen while tuning filters?

Jim AB3CV
I'm getting ready to use Spectrogram to set my filters. It would seem that
putting NGen on the RxAnt input would be a nice safe way to use it since no
transmit signal could accidentally blow it out.

Any reason that wouldn't work while setting the filters with Spectrogram?

Jim,

That would work just fine - set RANT ON, and don't forget to set it OFF
again after you are finished.

The other way is to set CW TEST on (press the VOX button while in CW
mode).

CW TEST on, *and* turn the power all the way down, *and* unplug the
key/paddle. Belt and suspenders! ;-)
