[Elecraft] K3S filter for FT8?

I run FT8 wide open with a 4KHz bandwidth and the 13KHz FM 
filter in the K3. I would go even wider, but the K3 stops at 
4KHz. The AM filter might be better, but there are only 5 filter 
slots, and I try to work in many modes. A really good day 
includes phone, CW, and digital QSOs.
