Hello all,  I am once again considering doing the Inrad audio improvment mod 
to my Omni 6+. I discussed it with Tentec, and they claim it will reduce the 
selectivity some. I am going to change C3, C29, R38 and install the 2.8 filter 
in the 6.3 IF, but before putting the 2.8 filter in the 9mhz If, I would like 
to know if by retaining the 2.4 & 1.8 filters in the N-1 & N-2 slots,
does it really make any difference in the selectivity as long as I can retain 
the capability to switch back to narrower filters?  I am a SSB op and spend 
very little time on CW.  I just want fuller audio quality than the thin " 
Communications Grade" audio. Also,  with people not adhering to the 3khz spacing 
rule on most bands these days, I wonder if I will really notice losing anything. 
Any help is appreciated. 73 Todd   KD7EFQ at aol.com
