Mike, I had good luck with 2 400 hz Inrad filters when I had my 850 a 
couple of years ago. As far as ssb goes, I didn't use any extra filters. 
The 850, IMO had plenty of selectivity, even in contesting, and I 
personally would rather put up with a little qrm, then pinch a ssb 
signal to where it sounds distorted or unnatural sounding. Just my opinion.

73, Mike K9MI
