Barry is right, the stock filter was 2.7; I once owned a Triton II and the rx/tx audio was excellent for that time. I received many compliments with just an ev banana mic into the rig. I did not know enough then to realize that the filter was the reason. In hindsight, this was when most rigs were much narrower (some 2.1 stock) and of course, xtal filtering was the most common way of generating ssb out there. In a way the 2.7 was a bit of an anomoly and I think in the rigs that followed the Tritons, TT went with 2.4, maybe because they began to seriously focus on dxers and contesters.

73,
