Boy that is pretty extreme,
When i bought this QTH I had a 50KW AM station on 830khz blasting away in
the other room from my shack. Near impossible to operate, most any band,
later the 50kw was moved and power dropped to 1 KW, that was not much
of a problem. Then the 1KW was moved also, all is fine now except for
mixing
products from junk mixers on a set up in Oahu that runs 4 transmitters on
one tower, 3rd world stations that do zero maintenance and the whole set
up is rust and paper clips. they put a signal every 10 khz from
Broadcast band
to 80 meters, and raises the noise floor on 160-80 at least 10db
besides as it
"splatters".
Numerous complaints filed to FCC is like peeing in the wind. There is no FCC
locally here in Hawaii any longer, due to reductions in staff and
engineers, so anything
goes.

Yeah sorry got frequencies flipped. Notch on 1860. See what happens. I
live a mile away from 760KHz running 50KW 24/7. I use a W6LVP RX loop
with one of his BCB filters in it plus another BCB filter right at the
rig input. This reduces the signal from 60+ over to about S9.

Explain how a notch filter on 930 can help a second harmonic on 1860?
You can filter the broadcast band to zero and the second harmonic is
still there.
