Also a good deal - the Icom IC-7000 - no synch detection but has
continuously variable SSB and AM bandwidth - the AM bw is adjustable
from 200hz - 10 kHz - and it sounds great in AM at the wide bandwidth.

That's a DSP filter, way after when a narrow filter helps reception.
Does nothing for desense or intermod.

But doesn't the Icom also have RF filters up front?
