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.

BTW: The FM receive mode is also inoperative with the roofing filter mod. because of the narrow bandwidth preceding the FM receiver section; FSK mode is inoperative because of the roofing
filter(s) incompatible offset(s).

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.
