[ICOM] IC-746 Pro CW filtering question

Mark,

You are not limited to 1.1 or smaller CW bandwidth. In CW mode you have a 
choice of three configurable CW filter settings. Each time you press the 
<filter> button you will get the next filter in line: 1, 2, 3, 1, 2...

If you do not like the default CW filter bandwidths, you can press-and-hold 
the <filter> button and redefine them to suit your taste - making one (or 
all!) of them identical to the SSB bandwidth.

If you use a computerized logging program, when you click on a spot or 
change bands via the computer, the software probably selects the same filter 
number every time. To ensure that you automatically get the bandwidth you 
prefer, make sure that the logging program's particular filter number (1, 2, 
or 3) is adjusted to what you want.

Good day everyone,



I am looking for a way to operate CW on the IC-746 Pro so that I am not
limited by the 1.1 or smaller CW filtering?  Reception with the SSB filter
bandwidth would be ideal.



After 39 years as a licensed amateur I am attempting to revive my CW skills
which I haven't used in more than 30 years.

Thank you in advance for your responses.
