That's easy to say in theory.  However, when your neighbor fires
up with his amplifier in a pile-up and activates the HACG you
need the 200 Hz filter "bandpass" decoding simply is not going
to do the job.

I think that would be a rare situation for most people. I also think that, even without a narrow roofing filter, the K3 would cope with a very strong close-in signal better than most other radios. So I would hold off buying the 200Hz filter until I found that I actually needed it.
