Don,

It seems that  you are an experienced CW op.
See the selection of filters no different from other transceivers where 
xtal filters determine the BW.. Just pick your favourite BWs.

For CW I have 400Hz en 200Hz in main RX  and 400Hz in SubRx to enable 
diversity mode.
I use the 400Hz filter 99% of the time. The 200Hz only comes into play 
when I need to dig a signal out, often in combo with the APF.

  I've been following P3, 2nd Rcvr here but am not ready for those yet. 
  My question is 1) best filters for CW and 2) any other must-have 
options. I've read Wayne's article about filter selection but still 
unsure. It seems the 400 and 250 may be close to same and 1000 and 400 a 
better choice. Or 500 5-pole? I'll be adding Sec Rx so what about filter 
matching? 73, Don,  KB1YBG
