[TenTec] a story of luck

[Clark Savage Turner WA3JPG]

I got a supposed Ten Tec model 217 filter for the 9 MHz IF,
500 Hz for CW use.  It has funny numbers on it, not "217"
though.  Anyway, I put it into the NAR1 position on my OMNI,
and I like it and all.  I also have the 219 250 Hz filter in
the NAR2 position.  I flip between the two and notice that the
500 Hz filter has a much lower center frequency, right where
I like it.  The 250 filter is much higher in center, very
noticeable.  It seems I got one of the special order filters
that was designed for a lower center by sheer accident!

Now, to order the 250 Hz filter with the lower center, and I
will have my CW station in order :-) .   This is great, what
luck!
