Brian,
Yes, using APF with a wider bandwidth helps, but a width more narrow
than 700 Hz should be usable - 400 Hz and more narrow may be "iffy".
FINE tuning with APF turned on is a necessity.

My "formula" for tuning very weak signals - almost can't see them on the P3 -
is as follows:
- Set the WIDTH to 700 Hz to 1 KHz QRM permitting.
- Turn on NR and set to 5m3 or there about.
- Turn on APF and tune for best audio. Setting the rate to FINE sometimes helps.
This almost completely eliminates noise ringing the filter although the signal
does ring a little. YMMV.
