Thanks to all who responded to the question about my A4 overload problems.
Turns out that the avc amplifier was way out of alignment and the avc
voltage was very low. After alignment the receiver is fine. I also found
out that the "7 deadly caps" have already been replaced although the
replacements caps are of a larger value than the originals.
I think I mentioned that the receiver only has the 3.1 kc filter. I found a
6kc filter but not sure if I want to buy it at this time. I run AM as well
as ssb and need a wider filter. I am looking at filters made by Kiwa. I
would like to have more options than just 3.1 or 6kc selectivity. So my
question is: do you folks think these Kiwa filters will work. The ones Im
interested in have a buffer amp at the input and output so Z matching
should not be a problem. With these buffers, the manufacture says they have
no insertion loss. Im including Kiwa's web site so u can check it out.

Again all responses are welcome.
Thanks again,
