In my noisy suburban QTH, I find that the Inrad 125 Hz 455 KHz filter 
cascaded with the MK V's 60Hz DSP APF filter makes it easier for me to 
copy weak CW signals. I think (but I can't prove) that in a couple of 
instances these narrow filters have made the difference between me 
making a solid contact with a weak DX station and not making a contact 
at all. YMMV.
