Using DX4WIN to set a frequency on CW with my IC-756, it automatically
selects the narrow (500 cps) filter. I've gone through the .RIG files,
comparing various ICOM radios, and here's the section that I revised ...
[RC-Set Mode]
CSTR=060002FD
LEN=0
LOC=Other
By changing the first command line to CSTR=0600FD ... taking the "02" out
just before "FD" ... my rig now changes frequency while keeping the wide CW
filter. It even changes to wide from narrow if the 500 was already selected
(very handy because lots of spots aren't right on the mark).
I suppose this would work on the PRO and '765 and others with that same
command string, but as they say, YMMV.
