Yes, it is. I did find the following in the manual. I'm trying to decide
if I can justify that much money!
The loop element features a 5 position band switch and a High-Q
poly-variable capacitor
(only active for switch positions 1 to 4) to tune and peak the wanted
frequency, while achieving maximum rejection of unwanted out of band
signals. This provides valuable additional selectivity for your receiverf
sfr on-end
stages.
