>I use it all the time - when people call me they're >nearly always off my frequency and outside the narrow >filters' passbands. When I call CQ in a contest I open up the filter a bit to allow for callers who are off frequency. It's actually nice that not everyone knows how to zero-beat. Otherwise they're all on top of each other and you can't make out anything. When I call someone else I'm usually in the tightest filter setting (100hz for me). I tune slightly off zero-beat for the reason mentioned above and it's not a problem to hear them. So I guess I substitute widening the filter for RIT. I'm not a DX'er so I don't operate split much, if at all.
