Good point, Arie.  I'm considering it!

Thanks for all the replies folks, I think I'm good to go.

Jast adding my two cents.

No diversitiy possibilities here at  PA3A-home.
But sometimes, I take my K3 to the clubstation PI4D (with lots of 
antennas) for the big contests. We use the K3 in diversity whenever 
possible there!  The K3 in that configuration is the favorite trx of 
many ops. Everybody loves the diversity.
So if finance is not a problem, duplicate the filters.

It's been a while since I researched filters, but if I recall, it is only the 5-pole that has an "offset" that needs to be matched, correct?  Is it overkill to add the other two 8-pole filters if I'm just using the KRX3 to chase DX working split?
