• Resulting filter values include: 2.2 kHz, 3.5 kHz, 4.5 kHz and 7.0 kHz.
• Filter chokes have been replaced by quality magnetically shielded chokes.
• Filter selection diodes are now replaced by low capac. switching diodes.
• Filter select decoupling capacitors are bypassed by new « chip » capacitors.
• The D-225 FM & Synchronous AM detector are factory installed.
