K3 AM filter (on receive) question

Edward R Cole
One of the reasons I bought the 13-KHz filter was to process wide
band audio baseband for use by spectrum sw, but it appears the
"modes" limit this if I understand correctly.  Example in FL1
(13-KHz) I am only able to reach 4-KHz in USB.  Same goes for DATA-A
max bw is 4-KHz.  AM - 5 KHz, FM (not adjustable) presumed to be 13-KHz.

Of course I have implemented use of the LP-Pan which replace the K3
2nd IF with a SDR which is bw limited only by nyquist and soundcard
capability (currently 96 KHz).

What limits it is a 4Khz low pass filter that all the audio passes through, independent of mode.

The limit is in the audio DSP - you will see the maximum cutoff even
on the Line Out which does not pass through the analog (op amp) LPF
in the headphone/speaker channel.

The response on FM is from 400Hz-2700Hz, just measured it with my spec. It is also DSP limited.
I think there is room for improvements.
