Depending on the different bw settings it is off or on. Additionally it toggles if you hit it one too many times. Could we get a list of when it should be on vs. off? Is it safe to assume that if you are at a bw smaller than a xtal filter, it should be on? Dave Wilburn K4DGW K2/100 - S/N

It is not per-filter. It is a single setting which can be changed by pressing '7' regardless of what filter is selected at the time. In my opinion, it's best to set it ON now until the bug that causes gain loss in the two sharpest DSP bandwidth settings when it's off is fixed. After that, you

Hi Bob: Thanks for the report! Re: your comment regarding the 50 and 100HZ bandwidth. I am surprised to hear what you report. I have the 200Hz filter in FL5. I just put the Elecraft XG-1 on ANT1 and tuned to the 7040 freq. With the bandwidth set to NORM (400 Hz) I show a S9 signal and an
