Hi, I agree with forgetting about the XFIL button and use the passband controls exclusively. But using SHIFT/WIDTH on SSB is very awkward as you constantly have to touch up both controls. Use HiCut/LoCut instead. Leave LoCut at 300Hz and use HiCut as the QRM fighting tool. If you have the 1.8kHz filter you will see it kick in automatically when HiCut is at or blow 2.1kHz. If your cut frequencies are on 350, 450 etc boundaries, pop back to SHIFT/WIDTH mode and adjust the SHIFT one click, then go back to HiCut/Locut and they should be on even 100Hz boundaries (unless of course you prefer it the other way).
