I agree with Mike that for occasional listening to AM stations outside
the ham bands, the stock SSB filter in SSB mode is fine. Zero beat the
station and it sounds OK. Switch to AM mode and it's too narrow. For
tuning around casually, having to listen to carriers as you tune is
annoying.
The 13 kHz FM filter adds a lot of quality to the fidelity, and lets
you tune and listen in AM mode with pleasant results.
And yes, other Mike, bandswitching and VFO management are still
problematic outside the ham bands.
