Thread-topic: LF: Anyone good with Elsie?
Hi Chris,

maybe you are better off with a 198kHz notch filter?

Hello DK7FC Stefan,

I  am  seeing  better SNR and more WSPR receptions in general with the
BPF  in  place, especially at night when the huge BBC broadcast signal
on  198kHz  that's  not THAT far from me becomes intrusive. During the
day  there's  not  a lot of noticeable difference with and without the
BPF  but  at  night  I  would need a lot of attenuation to stop 198kHz
swamping the receiver.
