$180 for a receiver filter? That's absurd !
I also wouldn't want one that attenuates 160m too.
Is the station you are having problems with actually above 1.6MHz ? If not,
you don't need a filter that starts attenuating within Top Band, like that
one does.
And you might need hardly any attenuation to stop the cross-mod you are
getting.
Personally, if it's just from one station, I would just put a simple
parallel tuned ciruit in series, tuned to that frequency . . . that would
probably cure the problem. And that would just cost you less than $1 !
(By the way, if you now have stations broadcasting between 1.6 and 1.7 MHz,
how does anyone pick them up? I don't know any broadcast radios that go
above 1.6 !)
