The KDSP2 option, although only working at AF, has a very flexible filtering
system that can be used to "move the skirts" around and raise the low
cutoff, or reduce the upper cutoff, or both.

The AGC will still respond to whatever is in the IF passband.

As Don pointed out, the IF passband can be shifted lower or higher (but not
narrower) using the SSB filter on the KSB2.
