You are going to have to move the carrier frequencies out to the slopes
of the filter to get back to SSB. That takes a lot of tweaking of the
shifting trimmers which interact between CW, LSB, and USB. And you will
be WIDE on the selected side band, a consequence of the wider filter.
Which I'd agree with those listening is too wide. I got along fine with
a 2.1 in my Collins rig for decades.
