[Elecraft] K3 Crystal Filters and Dynamic Range - D.R. impact and my basic recommendations

Whew! The last week has been a tidal wave of interest, orders and questions. There has been a lot of discussion and speculation on the list lately about the necessity for narrow filters ahead of the K3's DSP filtering and the impact of various filter bandwidths on receiver IMD. This in turn
