There s no doubt the modern transmitters don't use analog filters. 
They're all using digital filtering of the audio and digital modulation 
methods.  However, even 30 years ago before many of the digital methods   
transmitters were making 8 KHz or more of audio bandwidth while still 
meeting the limits at 10.2 KHz.
