Gregg,
Congrats!
I honestly believe you will really like the OII.

I think you made a great decision getting OII vs 7800. The front end is 
awesome on the OII.
The roofing filters are great.

When I worked the last contest I just walked right down the band and worked 
virtually every signal I heard. They were for the most part every 2 KHZ, and 
when a very, very strong one was right next to a weak one... NO PROBLEM..... 
impressive.

Here is my settings for that contest(SSB):

Roofing filter on 1.8 (fixed)
DSP bandwidth 1700
PBT + 150 to +200 (for USB)
SP on 3-4
Mic gain 65
Low freq rolloff 150
TX bandwidth 2100
TX EQ +5   (Heil Goldline narrow HC5 element) (used -8 on wide position)
RX EQ -5

Prog. AGC:
Decay 10
Threshold 1.5
Hang 30


No NR, no NB

1000 watts out of an Alpha 91b, into ONLY a multiband dipole at 30 feet.

It was FUN......

73,
Lee, KC9CDT
