Hi Ed!

I've got a 1650 KHz 10 KW station about six miles away.

I am using a Clifton Laboratories Z10022A high pass filter for 160 meter reception. Works great and very reasonable price.

Z10022A Medium Wave High Pass Filter
The Z10022A is a receive-only 9th order 1 dB Chebyshev high pass filter with a nominal cutoff frequency of 1800 KHz. The Z10022A is intended to be used to prevent a shortwave receiver from overloading due to strong signals from AM broadcast band (Medium Wave) in the 530-1700 KHz range. ( see the web site for lots of documentation). http://www.cliftonlaboratories.com/z10022a_high_pass_filter.htm

Has anyone used this High Pass Filter ? http://www.dunestar.com/store/160-Meter-Highpass-Filter-pid-8.html

I found I have a 25KW AM 1520 Khz BC transmitter 12 miles from me , is that close enough to interfere with me receiving weak signal DX on the top Band ? I do hear some wide band hash 1837 to 1840 !

Though I would asking before placing an order, not sure how what to look for with BCB interference ?

Tnx Ed N5DG
