[TenTec] notch filter for Eagle?

[Greg S]

 Yup. One reason I sold my Eagle. Auto notches are fine, but I prefer both auto AND manual, with the ability to have both engaged simultaneously. Everyone has their druthers.

Look at 2.2 SSB Operation AN (8). Page 14 in my manual.

The Eagle does have a notch function. I don't recall how to activate it but it is in the manual. It's sort of useless, like all Ten Tec notch filters, since it is outside the AGC loop, so, while it does not have the carrier, it also attenuated your desired signal by about as much as it reduces the carrier. The reduction to 20 watts in Tune is self-defense. Orion's do it too. This is to prevent the presence of full 100 watts  into a
 mismatch. It is good policy. Orion's had an option in which you could press the Power button, I believe, to get 100 watts in Tune after match had been reached. Red arid green the A//B VFO, there really is no A or B VFO in the traditional sense and Eagle only has one tuning knob. Therefore, the A/B indicator serves no function in transceive operation. In split operation, that indicator should flip when going fro RX to TX to tell you which displayed frequency is the TX frequency.
