[Elecraft] FILTER SETTINGS

Here's a tip for setting up the 500 Hz filter if you use one.  The actual 6 
dB bandwidth is 565 Hz, so in the FLx BW menu I set  0.60.  This means the 
500 Hz filter is activated at WIDTH = 600 instead of 500.  The advantage of 
this is when you use DUAL PB.  That function sets the narrow passband to 150 
Hz and the wider passband to 600 Hz.  Since the 500 Hz filter is now 
activated at 600, this means the 500 Hz is in use for DUAL PB, which can 
greatly help desense problems versus the stock 2.7k, which would otherwise 
be selected in DUAL PB mode.
