as the 1khz.
Is this a correct deduction? Either way it would be interesting to find out
quantitatively what that difference might be."


Yes, the SSB roofing filter should provide improved IMD numbers because it is 
much narrower than the 15 KHz stock filter in the Omni VI.  The CW roofing 
filter  has a nominal bandwidth of 600 Hz, not 1 KHz.  I believe the INRAD 
web-site has numbers on the projected performance characteristics of each of 
the roofing filters.
