Really pleasant and cool.

Am so lazy - could I simply use an orange filter as an all-purpose lens ...

Thx ngkh c-hing!

In my humble experience, orange filter is anything but all purpose and could muck up the contrast badly except in natural blue sky lighting.  For all purpose protection, UV filter seems to be the one...

Thanks Vincecharus for the kind sharing.

So I will continue  to use my UVa filter as protector. I once bought a yellow filter but it stays well in my drybox. :-)

Not really.
A Yellow 1 would be more appropriate, if you so wish, as an all-purpose "lens protector" for B&W photography.
Vincecharus c-hing might have more point-of view on this.

Bubu c-hing, I think yellow is fine except for artificial lighting...

My humble experience is not to use color (contrast) filters indoors or for night shots in most situations...

Sure.
When there is no need to tweak a particular object's greytone in a scene, better leave the lens bare.

vincecharus & bubu chings - thank you very much for the kind sharing on usage of yellow and orange filters, together with their respective limitations  
While yellow filter would generally enhance contrast, I once heard that it would reduce the details recorded on a MM, which I haven't validated.  This is the key reason why my yellow filter is still alone in my drybox

dennis ching - many thanks for the thumbs up

Yellow 1 is mild, almost to a point that you don't notice unless it's a A-B comparation. When the scene is a bit hazy, yellow 1 certainly makes a difference.

I personally prefer to use Leica's Yellow 2 or 3 for BJ outdoor because it is a bit tinted with pollution or fog. That's from my film shooting experience. So far I have not tried any yellow on MM.
