New K3S build filter placement

TKNorris
I have made my way to preparing to install the filters I purchased for the
project. I have read (someplace) that I could place the filters on the RF
board skipping the locations that I might later decide to add. With
thoughts of possibly adding narrower SSB and data filters I am planning to
install the FM 13Khz in FL1, the 2.8Khz in FL2, leave FL3 blank, install
the 400hz in FL4 and leave FL5 blank. Are there any disadvantages to this
approach? I'm thinking the FM 13Khz filter will allow me to dabble in FM
and AM (I have typically not been a phone person)?
Thank you,
Tom NB5Q

Tom,

That should work fine.  Just set the menu (or easier still, use
K3Utility) to set the proper filter widths and offsets.
