[TenTec] Paragon filter scheme

[Charles Mark Cring]

John,

According to my manual, the signal passes through the 9 MHz/2.4kHz filter
in SSB/CW, OR the 9 MHz/6.0kHz filter in AM/FM, then after conversion
cascades to the 6.3 MHz/2.4kHz filter (standard) or one of optional 6.3
filters. (SSB/CW only, AM/FM bypasses the 6.3 MHz filters/PBT)  

So on SSB/CW without the optional filters you are cascading 2.4/2.4 kHz :
with optional filters you are cascading 2.4/1.8kHz, 500Hz, etc...as
selected.  I suppose there is probably a way to cascade 500 to 500, I
assume you would have to replace one of the 9 MHz filters (like the 6.0
kHz if you didn't care about AM/FM?) but  would have to come up with a
switching scheme...maybe someone has tried this?

Hope this makes sense, it's kind of late and hope my thinking is
straight...
