N1LQ-Dave:

I have the KBPF3 installed in my main receiver.  I needed it to use 
my K3 down on the 600m band (495-510 KHz), so having it in the main 
radio is necessary for transmitting on 600m using the TEST 
mode.  Probably not a very common usage, but I thought to mention this.

I have the 13-KHz FM filter, 2.8-MHz and 400-Hz CW filter installed 
in the main receiver, so only use the 13-KHz filter for VHF-FM or BC 
AM.  Use of the DSP filter makes the 13-KHz filter a good choice as 
roofing filter, since one can tailor bw using the DSP filter.  Audio 
bw is <4-KHz in any case.
