[TenTec] Corsair II question on filters

[J. W. (Dub) Thornton]

Jim:  As you have it identified, the vertical filter is the stock 9mhz I.F. 
2.4khz
The other 4 filters are in the 6.3mhz second I.F.
Pos #1 was 2.4khz
Pos #2 is for 1.8khz
Pos #3 is for 500hz
Pos #4 is for 250hz

Three position xtal filter switch on front panel:
If you are in SSB mode,
#3=2.4khz filter
#2=1.8khz
#1=500hz

If you are in CW mode,
#3=1.8khz
#2=500hz
#1=250hz

Good luck with the rig, its a nice one.
