         I meant:

         The simple way around this problem is to find inexpensive
narrowband crystal filters in the 45-70 MHz IF range which would
plug into the first IF of current generation radios.  Of course this
is not that simple since this could defeat some of the wideband
mode features (e.g FM) of those radios.  Perhaps Inrad could
provide these filters as an interim solution.
