I'm happily enjoying the performance of the INRAD roofing filter kit for the Omni VI. It has exceeded my expectations in terms of performance and ease of installation. First off, for anyone concerned

Hi Jason, I understand why someone with a non plus or version 3 upgraded Omni VI would want the Inrad modification, in order to get another narrow 1st IF filter option. And I can also understand that

Hi Clark, Yea, I got it. With only one button to control it you would either get the new roofing filter AND the narrow option filter in line OR neither of them. Leaving the narrow option filter out a
I think you have it Clark. Just to clarify, the roofing filter is in series with the existing 15 kHz filter. Of course the existing 15 kHz filter adds little or nothing to the rig selectivity after t

Rick, That answers one question I had. Now another. Why couldn't you install both roofing filters, the 2400 Hz in series with the 600 Hz filter, and only switch the 600 Hz filter with the N-1 switch.

George, This is really great news. I'll post it on the Ten Tec Reflector-- put me down as one wanting an Omni VI CW roofing filter with 500 Hz offset (and 600 Hz BW). Are there nine others out there
