But - the 847 is superior on normal CW even on a untuned antenna (probably the filters) but not as good as the 345 on QRSS signals using SpecLab etc. So I watch the band on a slow SpecLab with the 345 & listen to normal CW on the 847 using my Sandpiper V9 vertical. No pre-amps yet. 73 Gary - G4WGT - IO83qp
