Topband: Antenna analysers in close proximity to BC station.

[ZR]

MFJ sells a filter for that but I dont know how well it works around serious 
BCB RF; 10KW at the high end of the band in 2 directions in about 7-8 miles 
doesnt bother my unfiltered 259B nor do the FM and UHF TV sites about 2 
miles away.
