Hi Paul,

I have an Omni VI not a + version, so I cannot have two narrow option 
filters in the 9 MHz IF. The narrow filter that is in mine is the 500 Hz 
one. I wish I could have more than one narrow filter, and if I could, my 
choice would be something wider than the 500 Hz and narrower than the 
2.4 (always in) filter. I like a wider filter (but not too wide) for 
tuning around. The combination of the 500 Hz 9 MHz IF filter and either 
the 500 Hz or 250 Hz filter in the 6.3 MHz IF is already narrow enough 
for me. I doubt that I would get as much use from a 250 Hz filter in the 
9 MHz IF as I would with say a 1.8 kHz or 1.5 kHz.

Hope to work you on 160. I'll be on in the CW tests coming up, 73 ES
