[Dx4win] How to set a freq and keep wide CW filter on IC-756

[Jay Hainline]

I have a question related to this. I own the Icom IC-756proII and using the
radio settings for the 756pro works ok except I would like for it to not
automatically default to filter 2 settings when you change frequencies. What
command do I change in the .rig file to defeat this? I want the radio to stay
on the filter setting I have already punched up manually.

Thanks Jay
