Good tip, Bob.   And it reminded me - at the Belevidere IL hamfest I saw 
a Collins 75A series receiver that had a homebrew "filter replacement" 
in it.  This was a small perf-board with a couple of chokes and 
capacitors which would obviously be for wideband AM but I thought it 
would be neat to give it a try.   Of course I forgot to go back and 
sketch the circuit!   Wonder if anyone knows about this and has the 
design details?
