for what I believe will be an absolute record
price for a Drkae R7 -- incredible:

Ends in just under 2 hours.

Never met the reserve.

So how does your R7 perform compared to the R8 and R8B you own?

There are times when the R7 is superior due to its 'true' passband tuning. I
never would have pulled Northern Cyprus in on 6150 without it.

What filters do you use in the R7 for AM and SSB reception?

I have the 8, 6, 4, 3 and 2,3 kHz filters in it.

What modifications or options does your R7 have in it?

No mods, but does have the NB and the above filters.

Are the filters from Drake or from somewhere else?

Sorry to be pest but do you know what center frequency these filters
operate on? The R8 and R8B are around 50 KHz and if they are Drake stock
filters I was wondering if they were also low frequency IF filters or
something higher?

I was also wondering if you found the noise blanker to be effective but
you are in a fairly low noise area so I suspect you don't know.
