[Elecraft] AM again

[Don Wilhelm]

Tom,

Unless you add the 6 kHz or the FM filter, you will have to use SSB or 
Sync AM to receive those AM signals.
Any other method will restrict your AM passband to less than 1600 kHz 
for the highest demodulated frequency.
If you want to transmit AM as well, you must have the 6 kHz filter.
