[TenTec] Omni-VI 2.8 KHz filters

[Charles Greene]

Hi

I got the two 2.8 KHz filters for my OMNI-VI yesterday and reviewing the 
documentation, I can't find that it says to null the carrier again.  I 
looked through the manual and I don't see anywhere you can null the 
carrier.  Did I miss it?  Does the carrier null just apply to the 
OMNI-V?  I don't mind doing it, but I just can't find where it tells you 
how to do it.  The only thing I found in the manual is setting the 
frequency for the PBT control, which might be a good idea to do.  I have an 
OMNI-VI purchased in 1994 with the + mod done by Ten-Tec.

I also ordered the 600 Hz roofing filter, but they said it wouldn't be 
shipped until March.  Inrad did give me a 5% discount for buying 3 filters :-)

I am planning install the Inrad 2.8 KHz 6.3 MHz filter in place of the 2.4 
KHz "standard" filter, move the 2.4 KHz filter to the 1.8 KHz filter 
position, move the 1.8 KHz filter to the .5 KHz position, leave the .25 KHz 
filter in place and relabel the filter switches.  When done, I will have 
three different 6.3 KHz SSB filters: 2.8, 2.4 and 1.8 KHz.  I don't see 
anything on the schematic that would keep this arrangement from 
working.  With the 600 Hz roofing filter, I plan to have it activated by 
either the NR1 or the NR2 switch.  I have a 500 Hz 9 MHz filter in NR1 and 
a 250 Hz filter in NR2.  All filters are OEM except the 2.8 KHz filters and 
the roofing filter.  Comments on this arrangement?
