[TenTec] Lock the 2.4 KHz Roofing Filter?

["Bernard" <wtrone@comcast.net>]

    I have read the Orion manual a couple of times waiting for the arrival of 
my new rig and I have a question about the roofing filters.  I mainly operate 
SSB and rarely get on CW.  Since the 2.4 KHz roofing filter is not engaged 
until the bandwidth is less than 2.0 KHz, would I be better to just lock in the 
2.4 filter and forget about the automatic feature?  I would think that on a 
crowed band or working DX on a 5 KHz split that the 6 KHz roofing would be a 
little too wide.  And, I really don't like listening to SSB with less than a 
2.0 KHz bandwidth.

    The answer may be obvious after I get to "play" with the rig.

    Comments would be appreciated.
