[Elecraft] Help on Configuration

[Deane Walkington]

Hi All

I am seriously considering a K3 and would like some advice on configuration.
My main interests, apart from the normal SSB HF and DX, are experimenting
with the narrow bandwidth digital modes.  6m would also be a new band for
me.  Occasionally I like to listen to the "Short Wave" broadcast bands so
will probably include the Gen Coverage Rx option.

The K3/100 would be the base configuration together with the Internal ATU
and I would probably include the Internal 2m module, which I understand also
requires the KXV3A module.  

The real question is what filter configuration I should consider.  The FM
filter is probably a given.  I am not really interested in AM transmissions
but do I need the AM filter to listen to the AM broadcast bands?  I wish to
have a good CW capability (CW Skimmer has made me go back to developing
these skills) but the priority would be the narrow band modes.

I would appreciate any comments/advice.
