[Elecraft] Wider bandwidth while listening to AM SW on the KX3?

While I do enjoy the AM SWL capabilities of the KX3, I would really like to be able to appreciate a more hi-fi sound from the unit.  I do know that that roofing filter XFIL1 is probably the ultimate limiter (I believe it’s 15 KHz?  or 10?) but I think the DSP filter in software is actually what is reducing my bandwidth to 4.2 KHz.  Since it is in software, I am hopeful that, perhaps, a future software update could provide a wider bandwidth or even shut off the DSP filter completely (pass-through mode).

I’m sure I’m not alone in using my KX3 as a SWL rig, and I hope that consideration could be given to this suggestion.  Thanks Wayne and Eric and the rest of the gang at Elecraft for a superb product!
