I bought one of the Collins filters a few years back when I think RT Systems was selling them on the PCB to plug into my FT817.? Collins did make a very good filter, has very steep skirts? Mine is 300 Hz version.? Best accessory for the FT817 for I work most all CW.? Was plug and play, just needed to install by plugging in and then selecting in the menu.
$400 is way too much, but can see $150 or little more since they are rare now.? Might make my FT817 that I have had since the 90s worth much more, hi.

there are many options, perhaps not as evident as making a google search and picking the firsts results, but original collins filters of same characteristics are still available new as AOR parts. Mounting them on an aftermarket board puts it int he $100 range or slightly above it.
Just search the archives. :)
