[TenTec] Corsair ,help with cw filter!

[Ken Brown]

If you are trying to use the model 217 (a 9 MHz filter) in the 6.3 MHz 
IF (the PBT board) it is not going to work.

I don't know the Corsair well enough to say for certain, but if it is 
like the early Omnis, it does not have selectable filters in the 9 MHz 
IF. You may be able to put the 217 in place of the "normal" 9 MHz IF 
filter. The rig would then become a CW only rig, because the normal 
filter is used both for receive and for unwanted sideband rejection in 
transmit. You would have a very narrow SSB transmit signal indeed. Not 
likely to be usable.
