OK, that's 2 assumptions.
Keith,
It workds great; doesn't degrade ham band performance at all. (You can
also receive the NAVTEX broadcasts on 518 KHz, nav warnings offshore
weather. Also some experimental 600m beacons down there...)

The General Coverage BP filter set seems to have no effect on the ham bands
- it shouldn't, as it is switched out during ham band receive.
If you do get the General Coverage BP filters, note that for maximum
sensitivity for MW reception use the RX antenna input rather than the main
