[ICOM] IC 746 filter help

[Dave 'Doc' Corio]

    As far as I know, there is no way to toggle between two narrow 
filters - only between wide and narrow. It may be possible to fool the 
746 into thinking the wide position is one of the filters, but I don't 
think so. I know the rig can be fooled into thinking that a 250 Hz CW 
filter is actually a SSB filter, as I've done that with mine. I use a 
250Hz CW filter for PSK31. I have no doubt someone will correct me if 
I'm wrong.
