[TenTec] TenTec CW filters or Inrad?

[John L Merrill]

Someone might correct me on this, but I think the INRAD filters have 3-4db
more insertion loss.

The Inrad filters have the steeper skirts,  but.......the response rises up
again a ways out!!  The Ten Tec filters do NOT.  So,  sort of depends upon
what you want the filter to accomplish.  I had an Omni VI+ loaded with Inrad
filters for a couple of years.  Sold it.

Now have an Omni VI,  Opt 3. with all Ten Tec filters.

That is how I voted.
