Dear John :

Although my situation is different because my TV is not for cable, I think
that it is impossible to eliminate ITV in the channel 2.

I built several LPF and use the Drake TV-1000, everything was a failure.

I am sentenced to not making radio in 6 and 20mtrs in my house.

Good luck. - 73 and happy 2011.

What have list members found to be the best low pass filters to prevent TVI?
I currently have a Drake TV-1000 in line but that allows RF up to 52mhz, and
actually above that because I have used it successfully on 52.525mhz for 6m
FM.  Today I borrowed a Kenwood LF-30A from a friend. I can't find too many
specs on it other than it has 90db of attenuation above 90mhz.  It didn't
make any difference compared to my Drake.  I was thinking that it might do
better since it should have a lower cutoff frequency.

I see that Drake also made a TV3300 filter that is rated at 80db above
41mhz.  And the ICE filters get good reviews on eham.net.  So, any opinions
as to what low pass filters work best?
