Hi Ron,

    RF parts has the 9-pin plugs but they also have a minimum order.  I 
did use these for exactly what you have in mind and they worked great. 
 Also, check out Fair Radio for the filters.  About a year and a half 
ago, they had the individual filters and also the whole IF chassis with 
all four filters for a very reasonable price.  Actually, I still have 
the IF chassis minus filters if anyone would like it.  
    Since 75 gets so crowded sometimes during net night, I ended up 
using the Dave Curry 6kc AM filter available through Electric Radio for 
$199 a copy.  These are the new tiny Collins mechanical filters mounted 
in a machined brass container with a matching network that plugs in like 
the original.  The performance is outstanding!  They also have the 2.5 
KC and 500 cycle filters available.  Just another way to end up with 
some good filtering for the 'A4.
