   If you are having the above problem, then there's something wrong with 
you radio.   My 746Pro puts out nearly full power on 60M, as it does on 
all other bands with absolutely NO change in current draw.  If the default 
40M filter was attenuating the 60M signal that much it would sure show up 
on the watt meter!
