Several months ago I bought and installed an ICE high pass filter (402X) 
for the AM broadcast band (it cuts off at about 1.7 MHz). I noticed a drop of 
a few dB in the overall BG noise level on 160. I didn't compare it on other 
bands. Just to make sure it wasn't loss in the filter, I ran a response on the 
filter with a calibrated generator and scope. It wasn't.
