Default Sr. Citizen Question Re IF BW Settings

Hello,

I'm mainly a sw listener, Sr. Citizen now, and frankly not very
knowledgeable about radio theory.

Have a new WinRadio receiver that I'm enjoying very much.

But I realize there are several optional settings that I really don't
understand, and don't have a handle on.

I do listening from about 1 MHz up thru the vhf/uhf scanner freq's,
including MIL and Maritime stuff on SSB.

Regarding the IF Bandwidth options:

Might someone please give me a short discourse on what this does, and
what it effects.

And, some suggested (Default) settings that I could get started with for:

AM
NFM
LSB
USB

Also the effect of slow, medium and fast for what I think is
the the AF Filter

Thank you very much; appreciate the help,
Bob
