It does.

Here it is with no LOW cut:

And here it is with LOW cut active:

It's consistent across modes, and doesn't really matter what the 
initial bandwidth, etc. is.  Looks right to me, with a tolerance of a line 
width or two on the high end of the response display, as I mentioned 
before.

Still don't understand why our two essentially identical radios don't 
work the same way.

One thing I would like to see changed with the "cut" control is to 
have a long press restore the conditions that existed BEFORE cut 
(either high or low) was invoked.  Although the issue is not so 
simple -- since BW or PBT may have been used in the meantime, 
and there may be both Hi and LOW cuts used, etc. -- so what the 
heck would you restore to?  

Perhaps a "read my mind" interface would help --- :-)
