ITS A WAIST OF YOUR TIME AND MONEY.			Time owned: 6 to 12 months
I PURCHASED THE W4RT 2.3 SSB FILTER ABOUT 8 MONTHS AGO. I AM VERY UNHAPPY THAT I DID. I WAS USING IT IN MY YAESU FT-897D. THIS FILTER DID NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE AT ALL. I TRYED ADJUSTING THE 897D AROUND THE FILTER AND DID NOT HAVE ANY SUCCESS. AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS OF GRUMBLING,I PURCHASED THE INRAD 2.0 SSB FILTER. THIS IS AN OUTSTANDING FILTER. THE INRAD 2.0 FILTER MADE A SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE ON ALL BANDS. THE FT-897D IS NOT JUST MY BACK-UP RIG ANYMORE. I USE IT AS MUCH AS I DO MY MAIN HF TRANSCEIVER. THE INRAD 300 CW FILTER ALSO DOES A OUTSTANDING JOB. PLEASE DO NOT WAIST YOUR MONEY ON W4RT'S OR YAESU'S COSTLY FILTERS. INRADS FILTERS ARE $125.00 EACH. THE SHIPPING WAS ONLY NINE DOLLARS FROM CA TO NC. I HOPE THIS HELPS SOMEONE BEFORE THEY MAKE THE PURCHASE MISTAKE I DID WITH W4RT. THANKS,CHUCK N4UED
