[TenTec] Omni VI roofing filter JPG

[Steve N4LQ]

Be prepared to spend about $200. Small price to pay for an Omni VI+ +.
You get to choose either the SSB or CW roofing filter. The CW filter is 
600hz wide. With the programing switches, you can make it kick in when 
hitting either N-1, N-2 or either.
It matters not if you have any filters in the option slots on the 9mhz 
board.
This thing installs at the very beginning of the 9mhz IF chain, just like 
the Orion. After this filter, the signal hits the OEM 15khz wide filter, 
which has an easy job now, then through the first IF amplifier, which is now 
happy not to have so many sigs to amplify, an on to your optional 9mhz 
filters.
