One of the variable-passband filters we've been considering is one for SSB, with a range of about 1.4 to 2.2 kHz. It would have 5 poles rather than 8, but I'm sure it would work well in combination with the I.F. DSP. The MCU would automatically dial in the crystal filter bandwidth to match the DSP.

This would be a slot-saver for those want multiple SSB RX bandwidths. Once the CW variable-passband filter was also ready, you might have:

   FL1  6.0 kHz
   FL2  2.7 or 2.8 kHz
   FL3  1.4-2.2 kHz (SSB variable passband crystal filter)
   FL4  0.4-0.8 kHz (CW variable passband crystal filter)
   FL5  200 Hz

Wayne,

Can you give me a rough projected price range that these two variable roofing filters might sell for so that I can decide whether to buy fixed filters now or wait for the variables...

73,

Paul
