The DSP filters on the Orion are much sharper than the roofing filters. You
just set your roofing filters on "auto" and let the Orion firmware handle
them. It will pick the best one for you.

Subject: [TenTec] Lock the 2.4 KHz Roofing Filter?
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.
