[Elecraft] K3 AM receive question

Thanks Don, I guess I misread an old post that had given me the impression
that the 13k filter could be "tricked"
I am glad I did not get rid of my 6k filter now, sitting in its box in the
draw.

One thing I would wish for in the K3 is six filter slots instead of the 5, I
could setup all; 250hz8p,  1.8k8p, 2.1k8p, 2.8k8p,  6k8p and 13k filters.
If there was a kit to add an extra filter slot, I would get it tomorrow.

Adrian.

The 13 kHz filter can be used for AM receive and the effect is quite nice,
but if you want t transmit AM you must have the 6 MHz filter installed.
