Hey Brian, I thought you were going to build one yourself???  : )
Weren’t you saving the parts for one???  Anyways, I think the
strong local can give you problems, according to the book that
can be a problem.  But you can have several work arounds for this
one of course cuts down on your sensitivity.  There are other ways
to work around that problem too, T notch filter and such.
1.  Attenuate 
2.  Less Regen
3.  filters
I’m sure there are others, like ‘not' except-able quiet times : )
Usually from what I hear, when there is a will, there is a way…

I’m now on chapter three of THE Book : ), and this has been
addressed.  There are a couple of other ways to deal with strong
locals, but I won’t go into that right now : )  Nah, just kidding, but
most of the time gentlemen’s  agreements can come into play.
Most hams don’t live in their shack, so they have to shut down 
once in a while : )

Back to that filter, it looks as tho it will help overcome your local
interference,  I do know I don’t plan on taking mine out for field 
day activities.  I took an older rig out for field day once maybe a
dozen or more years ago, for the fun of it, and found out rather
quickly that it was useless : )

73 fer now
