[Elecraft] K3 Question

[Goody K3NG]

Greetings.  I've read through the FAQ and have one question which may 
sound basic and silly, and I hesitate to ask.  With the stock roofing 
filter and the DSP functions, can I expect comparable or better CW 
performance to what I have with my Kenwood 850 with a 500 Hz crystal 
filter?  I want to get a K3 badly, but I don't want to fork out the 
extra dollars up front for a 250 Hz or 500 Hz roofing filter.  
(Certainly later I will get one of these and perhaps a 6 kHz filter for 
listening to AM.)

My guess answer to this question would be yes, but I haven't had the 
opportunity to see a K3 in action.

Thanks in advance for any feedback.
