[TenTec] Omni VI Pass Band Tuning CW Narrow

[Denton]

If you are running psk like I do....center the recieved signal on 2000 hrz 
on the waterfall, click in N2. Anything below 2000 hrz just 
dissapears...click in the additional 250 hrz cw filter and one can use psb 
to really narrow down the passband to just only seeing the one psk signal.
Wonder if the new Omni 7 can do this?
