Depends on what you want to do... CW, SSB, DIGITAL, etc...

The Kenwood filter numbers are:

YK-88S  2.1Khz (I think this might be the standard filter)
YK-88SN 1.8Khz
YK-88C  500Hz CW 
YK-88CN 270Hz CW

You can download the manual off the web, just Google it and you will find.

I have recently used the INRAD CW filter in mine and it does a good job.
