I think you may have received the wrong filter.  At this point, I'd 
install the new filter in the KRX3, but set the Main and KRX3 offsets to 
-0.95 (split the difference).  20 Hz is not going to make a practical 
difference in any operational sense that come sot mind.

You can check with Aptos to see about swapping the filter. If the new 
filter is in the KRX3, it will be the easier one to swap out later.

Sorry about the error.

I hope you get a lot of enjoyment and use out of the KRX3. If you have a 
second antenna, or a length of wire laying around that you can pretend 
is a second antenna, you are likely to find Diversity reception a real 
eye-opener (or is that a band opener?)

73 and Happy Holidays,
