Short of removing the filter physically from the radio, you are correct.

If you set fuction 38 to off I presume that will turn off the filter. Is
this
correct? I guess the only reason to do that would to verify the filter is
working...

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

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