The 400 Hz filter as it works well for both CW and RTTY. If I were not so concerned about RTTY, I would consider the *INRAD* 500 Hz (8 pole) filter for CW along with the 200 Hz (5 pole) Elecraft filter for times when adjacent signals are just too strong (I already have the 200 Hz filters). For SSB, I believe the stock 2700 Hz is more than satisfactory. The improvement from the 2800 Hz [8 pole] filter does not justify the "exchange price" - the savings from sticking to the stock 2700 Hz filter can be used for the 400 Hz CW filter or to *add* either an 1800 Hz or 2100 Hz "narrow" SSB filter if needed. 73, ...

Hello gang, Just ordered my first K3. I haven't ordered any filters or accessories yet. Want to wait and see what I really will need. I'd like to illicit your experience with the use of crystal filters for CW. What filter do you find you use the most and why? I won't be using the K3 for contesting....just casual CW-only DXing and occasional rag-chews. Of late, I've really enjoyed getting on 40m and 30m at sunrise. Many thanks in advance N1BBR :-]
