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.
