Actually, *IF* you have the Kiwa mods, the UT106 works quite a bit

nearly as badly as without the Kiwa mods.

Indeed true, and my R75 had the Kiwa modifications done before I ever bought
the UT106... so I've had a chance to hear it without, so to speak. But I still
find that even if it's 'better' (which is true), it's muddier than I like if I
go above more than 6. But again, I do like the notch filter and use it alot.
I suppose if the original post'er could pinpoint exactly why they need either
the DSP or a new filter, they could save themselves some dough. The DSP and the
Kiwa mods combined aren't too steep, but if all they wanted was a tighter
envelope for SSB or an occasional higher-fidelity sojourn into AM territory, it
may be cheaper to try a new filter internally. But if they get the DSP and the
mods, it would be a pretty safe and efficient bet for their bread that they'd
have a better unit than what they have now.

Since the sync detector on your R-75 is presumably working better with
the Kiwa sync' mod, do you prefer to listen to an AM signal using the
sync' or do you still use ECSS, like many other R-75 owners do?
