In order of preference:

TS890 w/270Hz Roofing Filter.
FTDX3000D w/300Hz Roofing filter.
FTDX5000 w/300Hz Roofing filter.
FTDX101MP w/300Hz Roofing filter.
TS590SG w/500Hz Roofing filter.
K3S
IC7851. I think the sharpest roofing filter available for this one is 1200
Hz, since it's up-conversion.


The FTDX3000D and TS590SG are amazing rigs, in particular for CW and even
more if you consider their price.


73,
