The Collins 353A adapter was for the Hammarlund SP400 and National HRO-60.
Their 353B adapter was for the SP600JX.
Both used 455KHz "F" series filters and were available in several
bandwidths, including 3.1 KHz. As previously mentioned, they plugged into the
receiver in place of the IF tube and had two tubes on top.
The Hammarlund HQ-215 also used Collins filters by its design.

Collins made those filters. At one time I had a .5 a 1.5 and a 3.5 that
plugged into the 1st IF tube socket in place of the tube. They used the
mechanical filter Collins made and were designed for the SP 200 and HRO
60.
