INRAD claims the 600hz roofing will not render FSK useless. You can still
use fsk but I can't imagine it passes the high tones too well.

Thanks for the info regarding the NB, Dave.  I think you pioneered (I
recall some early correspondence with you on this!) the roofing filter
ideas for the OMNI VI.  I appreciate it.

One note to this (especially to new guys), the Inrad mod itself does
NOT render FM or FSK inoperative.  If you don't engage the Inrad
roofing filter by pressing the NAR button, FM and FSK are fine, since
you allow the wider roofing filter to stay in line.  The NAR button
selects and deselects the additional narrow roofing filter according to
your preference.
