[Elecraft] Crystal Filter Offset in 4.81, What does it mean?

[Ralf Wilhelm]

In my MarkV Field, I can switch the (2.4k?) SSB filter into the path while receiving in CW mode (500 Hz pitch) and don't "see" the other sideband at all due to the DSP which adds the sideband suppression almost for free (I can turn the DSP off and then I hear the other sideband). The same should apply to the K3, shouldn't it?!?

Greetings
