Nice to see you QRV agn. Regarding filters I decided to go with 500 Hz for both server and client (ICOM 706MK2G and Yaesu FT-897). PSK250 looks abt 250 Hz wide on the scope so 300 Hz should be the optimum there. I decided to go for 500 Hz as there may be other modes used later (dominoex just doesn't work but is still interesting). Also, with 500 Hz filters in place its pretty good to use the dsp to narrow it even further (avoiding the agc pump then). 73, Per
