I assume you are referring to insertion loss from in-line bandpass filters.
I'm planning on using combinations of parallel 1/4 and 1/2 wave open and
shorted stubs for bandpass filtering. In testing my particular two-radio
setup, I found them to be more effective at supressing the broadband noise I
was getting with some of the band combinations. Seems to me that losses
should be nil with stubs, although I haven't seen any data to that effect.
