Hi Mario,

S56A:
 >You wouldn't like to receive just 500 Hz on any band so they are 15 kHz 
wide but very up-front!

         That wouldn't do a thing for a strong signal within
the 15 kHz passband.  You would still have exactly the
same close-spaced IMD and BDR issues, which is the topic
we were discussing.  Filters like these are more intended
for multi-multi setups where a second station is being used
on the same band.  Inrad's filters only cost $98, not $200.

IINRAD is now stocking a few front-end filters, which may be used in RF 
environments where there are many strong signals, such as locations near 
high power broadcast transmitters or multi-transmitter contest stations.
