[Elecraft] Adding Filters to K3

[john at kk9a.com]

I have five filters in my main receiver and only two in my subreceiver .
Only 400Hz filters are common in both. I have the identical setup in two
separate K3S's and it works great for my HF contesting needs where I use
the sub for SO2V. If you want to use diversity reception you may want at
least some matching filters.

I have an Elecraft K3 with a subreceiver with 3 of the 5 slots filled
with filters.  For SSB both the main and sub receivers have a 2.8 khz.
filter.  I have one 1.8 khz. filter I would like to add to the main
receiver.  Can I add this filter to the main receiver and leave the
corresponding sub receiver slot vacant?  I understand only the main
receiver would benefit from the 1.8 khz filter and I am fine with that.
The sub receiver would still use the 2.8 khz. filter I assume.  Any
thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Frank
