[1000mp] possible 1000MP upgrade

[Alex Malyava]

So sad to hear that the thing I was about to do does not worth it :)

I do have the roofing filter installed along with 250-400 and 1800
inrad filters.
The only thing I am missing, I think, is narrow filter for SUB
receiver and, maybe, a few more filters in 455k IF in main receiver.
