[TenTec] RX366

[Carl Moreschi]

I don't have the 15 khz filter but I'm sure that would solve it.  Is 
that an option for the RX366?

I was going to swap the 15 for a 600 Hz filter but I don't feel like I need the 600 Hz yet.  If I get more serious about chasing DX on CW then I may need to do the swap.  In the meantime SWLing with the 15 KHz filter and bandwidth set at about 10... makes the big shortwave broadcast stations that are left sound very nice.
