Unlike the CW filter, the SSB filter is always on once to set function 38.
The NAR has no effect on it.

Subject: [FT817] CW Filter / IRC 500 hz installation
Hello FT817 owners,
I bought my FT817 at Dayton and finally got it on the air yesterday
(6/2). Today I went to install the 500hz IRC CW filter which I also
bought at Dayton but it doesn't seem to be working. Yes, I changed
menu item 38 to CW. Both the CW and OFF positions sound the same.
When putting the filter menu into the SSB position it sounds filtered
but it sounds like the CW is partially getting cut off. On SSB the
signals are unintelligible with the filter set to ON (SSB that is).
Again the SSB signals sounds the same with the filter in the CW and
OFF positions. So it sounds like the filter may be working but only
when menu item 38 is set to SSB, however, it doesn't sound like any
500 hz CW filter I have ever heard.
I'll be calling IRC tomorrow and I am sure they will either have any
answer or will ship a new one because they have always given great
service and stood behind their products.
I am just wondering if anyone else experienced this though ????????
