IF2 filtering achieves a narrow channel selection. In case it is not used, it should be
replaced by a > 1 nF coupling capacitor, thus the IF1 filter is the only part achieving the
channel selection. Available commercial filters with a 35 kHz BW allow data rates up to
19.6 kbps if crystal temperature drifts are very low.
For faster communications and/or wider channelization, this ceramic filter can be
replaced by an LC band-pass filter as proposed hereafter.
