It probably achieves the same effect as my MFJ DSP filter (I think it's
a model 784b), which does a terrific job of smoothing the Corsair II
side tone and also adds other bells and whistles such as selectivity and
heterodyne deletion. I've heard others complain that their outboard DSP
units introduced a disconcerting amount of delay in the side tone
signal, but I didn't notice that effect with the MFJ, even when using a
keyboard. The MFJ unit also boasts very robust audio. That I was able
to buy it secondhand at a very attractive price also added to its charm.
