Wayne,

In the new firmware announcement you say:

> AM RECEIVE WIDTH RANGE INCREASED
> ...
> NORM selects an IF bandwidth of 6.0 kHz in this mode. WIDTH settings  
> above 6.0 kHz will not be useful unless you have an FM-bandwidth  
> crystal filter installed (at FL1).

I like using the K3 for shortwave listening. I would rather not be  
required to buy the FM xtal filter to get the full bandwidth on AM.  
Will this change with future revisions?
