[1000mp] Is this filter combination possible in a "stock" FT 1000 MP?

Hi Gary,

I just took a closer look at my manual... I don't have a 500 Hz 3rd IF. I 
just have the stock filters. That means 2 x 2.4 kHz and one 500 Hz which 
sits in the 2nd IF. Therefore moving the filters without big "effort" will 
not work in this case.

Coming back to the *one* 250 Hz filter. Isn't it better to purchase this 
filter for the 2nd IF? I thought it was better to filter out as much qrm as 
possible at the earliest point in the reception ...
