Transmit AM through FM Filter?

[Dan Atchison]

Checked the archives, but unable to find an answer. If I was to
purchase ONLY an FM filter, can I also TX AM through it without issue?
I know RXing is not a problem.

Thanks

Dan,

The 'without issue' part is important here.  While it could possibly
work, to work with spurs and other 'bad things happening' is not likely.
  The 6kHz filter is for AM transmit.  The K3 may even prevent AM
transmission if that filter is not installed, but I don't know that for
certain.

The current firmware blocks the use of any foilter for AM Tx other than
6 kHz.

Did you, instead, really mean "without spurs..." here?
