[Elecraft] Filters

[Bill Frantz]

Mine moves in .10 increments, but it seems to like the numbers 
that end in 5. e.g. .350. I wouldn't worry too much about it. 
set the low end to .3 or to .4, depending on conditions and the 
voice you're listening to and call it good. The whole purpose of 
the knobs is to let you adjust the bandwidth to match conditions.
