[Elecraft] Selectivity

Are you using or boosting the receive EQ in CW mode?   I believe at 
lower BW settings the EQ will be negated thus you are losing the effects 
of the applied boost.   As an operating practice, little to no RX EQ 
should be used for CW mode as EQ typically creates phase effects 
impacting harmonic content of the audio signal.    It is always much 
better to "attenuate" as opposed to "boost".
