[Premium-Rx] Introduction, and a RF-590A question

[Peter Gottlieb]

I'd have to go look for it, I haven't seen it in ages.  I'm sure it's in the 
archives WAY back though.  A few people implemented it in their units so someone 
must still have the instructions if I can't find them.

The receiver is very selective without it, and it is designed to make the receiver functional in an installation where there are multiple high power transmitters running while it is receiving.  You lose a bunch of sensitivity by having it in line.  I have a mod which uses the NB button to bypass the preselector and I've found over the years that I have not found a situation where I needed the preselector.
