I have seen lots of posts on the filter setup on the K3 with regards to gain and also changing the filter value entered compared to the value of the filter itself. I just installed the general coverage unit in the main receiver along with a 6khz filter. This brought me back to the filter setup question.  Just wanted to get some input from elecrafter's  and their filter setting setup's.  

My K3 filter line up is a follows:

Main 
2.7Khz  stock 5 pole crystal filter offset at -0.76

6Khz 8 pole inrad filter (I purchased this filter as the general coverage receiver is installed)

500hz 8 pole inrad filter

400hz 8 pole inrad filter

250hz 8 pole inrad filter

Sub
2.7Khz 5 pole cystal filer offset at -0.90

500hz 8 pole inrad filter 

400hz 8 pole inrad filter

250hz 8 pole inrad filter

One last question.....In the main receiver where the general coverage unit has been installed I added the 6khz filter. For some reason I installed the 6khz flter after the 2.7 on the K3 board. I really don't want to take the radio all apart but if the 6khz should be in slot 1 then I will.
