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.
