Hi Richard.
Thanks. It's a little different than I thought it was going to be from
Colin's comments, but if I can find someone who can do the modifications,
it sounds like it is probably well worth doing.
I think basically filters are like antennas--good ones are worth sinking
money into, and they can make or break a station. It's like a friend of
mine from college used to say, "You can't work 'em if you can't hear 'em!"
