[Elecraft] FM Filter for AM?

[Bob Naumann]

Thanks Wayne for this information.

To be honest, I did not look at the manual for restrictions on what filter
could be used as I didn't expect there to be any restrictions - especially
for SSB.

So, from a technical standpoint, my expectations were correct, it's just
that the firmware does not yet allow what I presumed would be completely up
to the end user to decide.

I look forward to this coming to the top of the lengthening request list.

Thanks again & 73,

Bob W5OV

Yes. As usual we have a long list of customer requests that we're  
working on. This is one of them (along with allowing the FM filter to  
be used for AM TX).

I believe the owner's manual and assembly manual both state that you  
need either a 2.7 or 2.8 kHz filter installed. But we many need to  
further clarify this.
