[RTTY] 300hz or 500hz IF filter?

[Don AA5AU]

If I had a choice between a 300 Hz and 500 Hz filter for RTTY, I would choose the 300 Hz filter. It would help on CW too.

>Hello everyoneI would like to outfit my FT-857D portable rig with an IF filter on its 455khz stage.  INRAD sells a suitable 500hz unit.  They also have a 300hz unit.   I am leery about the 300hz filter being too narrow.
