Hello Richard,

It has been found that the brain of a skilled CW operator can simulate a filter as narrow as 50 Hz. The difference in noise power between a 60 Hz and 50 Hz filter is 0.79 dB. So either your FT1000 DSP filter is a bit wider or your brain filter is a bit narrower.

For slow morse (10 w.p.m.) it can be advantageous to use a filter as narrow as 10 Hz. This will give a 7 dB better S/N ratio than your brain will provide.
With weak signals, this really helps.

73,
Roelof Bakker, pa0rdt
