I need to procure bandpass filters for my growing MS station.  Does anyone
have any comments or preferences concerning Dunestar or ICE.  Any other
options out there?

Another oops!

In my comment after WW99CW, I mentioned that folks had been crowding me =
and dropping about 200 Hz from a frequency I was running on.  I was in =
badly mistaken.

I found out only yesterday that something has slipped in my Omni-V.  It =
now transmits about 250 Hz. from its receive frequency.  I am convinced =
now, that this was happening during the contest as people were =
consistently calling me far enough off that I had to split to receive =
them well.  I had just attributed this to calling off from the pile, in =
hopes of getting a quick answer. =20

This frequency error means that the folks that I thought were only 200 =
Hz. away, were most likely  500 Hz. away!  That is plenty for me during =
a contest.  So my comments were in error and unwarranted.  I especially =
owe an apology to W7GG, AA7CW and many others, for my comments to them =
on the air.

The same frequency error means that I most likely stepped on MANY =
people, thinking that I was 500 Hz. away when I was right on top of =
them.  If I did this to you please accept my apology as well. =20

Sincerely,

J., VY1JA
