HAM Blends: Same trick, different dog

Similar to my mods at ETMX in alog 17488, I thought I would try add some low pass filters to one of the HAM's CPS blend filters. So far I've gotten mixed results. HAM6 shows a pretty clear improvement, HAM5 is about 50/50 good and bad. First plot shows HAM6, second is HAM5, solid is before, dashed is after, black is ground, blue is CPS, red is GS13. HAM6 shows improvement between  1 hz and 10, but HAM5 is better up to 3 or 4 hz, then worse. At least the HAM 5 data shows nothing worse below a HZ, the HAM6 data was taken really quick so I didn't get the low frequency part.

Not really sure what is going on. Maybe insufficient loop gain or something?

Adding plots of the blend filter change. Red is stock, blue is the added filter, green is the product.
