[Elecraft] CW filter question

Hi,

I am doing a complete aligment of my K2 during the weekend... just  
for the fun of learning.... and in the KSB2 SSB manual, they said to  
set OP1 for FL1 (filter on SSB board) for both SSB and CW. I  
undertstand what is OP1, etc...

But my question is: Could I choose other than OP1 for the first CW  
filter ?

My setup for CW only is FL1 = 1.5 kHz and FL2 = 500 Hz... both are  
well aligned on 600 Hz peak with a spectrum analyzer. I don't want a  
wide filter for CW.. like OP1. I understand that basic K2 crystal are  
optimized for 700 Hz and below signal filter. And if I was using only  
CW without the SSB board, I will be using the basic K2 filter only  
anyway... so I think I am OK, but I only want to make sure that  
including a SSB board do not change my understanding of how filter  
works in the K2.

Thanks and 73
