Rick,

Hmmm - like all of us, they eventually wither away and die ... hi - and
rodger on the KVG filter. Maybe Mike is right; just add on an audio
filter. Even a passive LPF like KK7B designed for his High
Performance DC receiver (think it cuts off at (1000 hz with a very
sharp skirt). Bill Kelsey at:

sells the single board + components for $15. I built one and it's
unbelievable and not much insertion loss. I'd rather do that than mess
around with op amps (again). There was some serious engineering that
went into those LPFs.
