That SCAF sounds fine business. I might well go with one of those when I can. My radio earphones are old WWII "can" jobs, they work great, they do take some of the noise out. 73 de Alex NS6Y.

Alex,

I recently built an Idiom Press SCAF-1 audio filter and it was a vast
improvement for my Icom-706IIG (it doesn't do much if anything for the K2).

======================================
I built the SCAF 1 and agree with one exception:  I don't have good
communication headphones and use Sony stereo 'phones. These are hifi and I get serious thumps from the K2, even with the AF 1 turned on. This is true with other rigs as well. The SCAF 1 removes this noise. I just need to make sure I don't overdrive the SCAF 1 as it is very sensitive to this. The filter really cleans up less than pure sidetone audio, too. I would like to get some good communication 'phones, without the microphone thingee. Any recommendations. I like the kind that seal out external noise. I like to
use a bug but the damper clacking is distracting to me.
