Good point. It would depend upon whether or not you'd want to hear
someone so far from zero beat.

My thought on the 5 pole was that it would give you some protection but because
the skirts were not as steep you could hear someone calling you off frequency
better. They would be down but not out. The 5's have slightly less insertion
loss and are cheaper. On the other hand they need an offset
Those 8-pole filters have steeper skirts. Either the 5- or 8-pole
work quite well.
I use 5-pole for the narrower filters (250, 500), and the 8-pole for
1.8, 2.8, 13 KHz bandwidths.
