I moved/added some roofing filters yesterday, adding both a 6 kHz AM filter and 
the 400 Hz CW filter, moving my 2.7 kHz filter from the FL1 to the FL2 
position, and my 1.8 kHz filter from the FL2 to the FL3 position. I thought I 
understand everything I needed to do to fix all the configuration settings, but 
I forgot one thing: changing the FLTX setting for the CW mode. I thought I only 
had to do that for SSB and AM.

Turns out I was wrong, and FLTX CW was still set to FL1. The K3 manual led me 
right to the problem based on the error code I was getting, and it was easily 
fixed. Again, excellent documentation.

But this got me to thinking: Why is this a manually configurable option at all, 
when the settings are all manadatory? You MUST have SB and CW set to the 
2.7/2.8 kHz filter position, you MUST have AM set to the 6.0 kHz filter 
position, and you MUST have FM set to the 12.0 kHz filter position. So what's 
to "choose"? Seems like this should be automatic and hidden from the user.

Am I missing something here? Is there really a reason for it working this way?
