    I think it may be the half power points (3db) of the filters created.   1.5K+1.5K = 3k-2.7K = 300Hz/2 = 150 Hz is ~ 50% point or half power.  I guess that is clear as mud....

    Doesn't the 3db point change depending on which setting is used in the filter settings ?

    Hi Larry.  Thanks for the great explanation.  I now know what the center value represents.  I'm not sure how I would use this value though.  I guess it's just for informational purposes.

    It is used for operating digital modes, like PSK31 where you may want to know the center frequency offset for the receive filter if you are also using a narrow TX filter in the center of the RX passband.
