I have just fitted the FM filter to finish off my complement (now 13, 6,
2.7, 0.5 and 0.25). I used the K3 utility to set the bandwidth (13kHz) and
I have all the square boxes ticked (checked) so that, in my understanding I
should be able to go up to the full bandwidth of the filter in all my other
modes should I wish.
However, whether I use the width control or the xfil button, the FM filter
(in FL1 of course) cannot be brought into play, the width simply stops at
the width it did prior to fitting the FM filter.
It's no big deal, I bought the FM filter to play on the top end of 10m from
time-to-time, not to use enormous receive bandwidths in other modes, however
I was of the belief that the full width should be usable in every mode so
long as it is enabled on a per mode basis.
I am wondering if there is something I have overlooked, and 'yes', I've read
the manual! I am on the latest beta firmware.
