If I could have 3 different filters in each IF, I would be tempted to go -
6.3 MHz: 2.8, 1.8, 500Hz
9 MHz: 2.8, 1.8, 250Hz
I don't think the 2.4 would have that much greater fidelity that the 1.8 nor
that much greater selectivity than the 2.8. These should let you go from HI-FI
to really tight for DXing.

My Omni V was on the fritz for the CQWW this past weekend and I used my TS690
instead. There is no comparison between the two. I have all filter positions
filled in the 690 and it still won't hear as well as the Omni.
