No, not a null, but a rolloff. When I quoted -40 dB I didn't mean a notch at one frequency, but the stopband level reached by the time you get well into the broadcast band. So that would be -40 dB on all AM stations below a certain frequency. The K3 is a good receiver, but every receiver has its limits and certainly the K3 will suffer once an interfering signal gets above a certain level. A trap or stub would work, but my point was that it would be unnecessary if using a link-coupled tuner. Attenuating a 50 kW station by 40 dB makes it sound like a 5 W station. Al W6LX
