 >I didn't order any filters not knowing which ones to order.

         Ci I ordered my K3 on May 1 but have not placed
a filter order yet.  Elecraft promised to post full IMD/BDR
measurements for all filters but has not done so thus far.
As you probably know, ARRL discovered IMD problems with the
Orion 500 Hz filter after it was released, which actually
led to the front-end redesign implemented in Orion II.  I
commend Elecraft for posting full data in advance but sure
wish they would "get on with it" so I can finalize my order
(which now seems to be beyond 9/17).

         Just order you unit without any filters.  Complete
data on IMD/BDR performance for all filters should be posted
long before you will  - receive your unit (call Lisa at Elecraft
and she may give you a more specific date for delivery).

                                 73, Bill  W4ZV
