For JT65, WSPR, etc. I just use the narrowest filter when on frequency
and the P3 to see where signals are.  In my case, that filter is the
250 Hz.

With the K3, remember that you're not selecting a filter so much as
setting a bandwidth.  Filters kick in as they're called for, and this
is slaved to the WIDTH or LO/HI control.  You can also force a filter
selection (as with the K2) using the XFIL switch, but doing so forces
the WIDTH set to the rated filter bandwidth at the same time.
