[TenTec] Orion....use of 250 hz filter

[fraz1]

I only put out my note because, for me, the 250 Hz filter works great.  As I 
said, I see no impact on BDR or IMD from an operational standpoint.  That 
includes "close-in" strong stations.

Everyone may experience something different.  My experience has been great 
and wish I had done it earlier.  And, yes, I have manually switched the 
roofing filters looking for problems.....and finding none.......so far.

Thanks for all of the comments.
