[Elecraft] Re k3 filters.

[Mike Rodgers]

Don, I thought the comment rather " tongue in cheek". Some consider all caps akin to cursing. 

As to lying to the k3 as to the filter you have put in it's slot which I think more than a few do. 
If you have told the k3 that it's a 2.1 but it's actually 1.8 and you have dsp set to 2.1, isn't it actually 1.8 and lying to yourself?  No offense meant. 

Is there some advantage to this other than allowing one to jump filter to filter like the old days?

I have seen reference to cascading filters but isn't that having the dsp the same as the filter? Could someone as to before mentioned benefit and cascading filters to clear this up for me. 
I don't see the point in lying to the k3 but wonder if I'm missing a valuable tool?
