Yes, but with a 1.8 kHz filter, the adjacent QRM goes away as well.

One can't have good quality from a wide bandwidth if the adjacent station is splattering over into your receiver bandwidth. Something has got to give.   After all, it is communications quality audio.   Narrow the bandwidth to 1.8 kHz and adjust the SHIFT to better the quality and lessen the QRM.

With the recent experience in SSB? contests, I'm thinking of upgrading
my SSB filter(s). Currently for SSB I have only the 2.8 filter. What are
thoughts about other SSB filters? I know when I narrow the bandwidth to
1.8 the intelligibility goes down.

John, when narrowing the SSB bandwidth down to 1.8 use the shift control also 
and shift from 1.5 down to wards 1.05 or so. Makes a big difference.  I'm sure 
a MACRO could be set up to do that automatically but I don't find it necessary 
often enough to worry about.
