Thanks for the tip John,

The filters are switching in and out, as they should.

You may know this but look at the boxes on the main reciever made with
red and yellow lines.  The red lines are the roofers and the yellow is
the DSP bandwidth.  Did the red line show the roofer activated?  At 2Khz
seperation I have have easily removed the offending station.  There was
splatter on SSB and cleaned it up quite nicely with 1800 hz roofing
filter.
