Bwana Bob -

I have a 455 kc/200Hz filter.  Have no need for it now that I no longer
make any highly selective IF strips.  Commercially made by
Filtronetics.

Can send you a photo or two of it if you are interested.  It is metal
cased for lowest blow-by, etc, and plugs in, two pins each bottpm
end.
