Has anyone had experience with measuring the insertion loss of bandpass 
filters. I am working with a 10Mhz filter with the topology: input 
transformer, caps to ground, 2.7 pF coupling cap, caps and inductor to 
ground, 2.7 pF coupling cap, caps to ground, output transformer.  The 
insertion loss measures around 4.6 dB and I am curious if this sounds too 
high compared to other designs.  Thanks.
