David,

A Low Pass filter cutting off above 6m is useful here, because our not so 
local FM BC station operates just above 100 MHz.

I suggest that if you do convert a LPF, do not use small toroidal inductors 
(unless "air wound") if the filter is to be used between a receiver and an 
antenna feeder. Small cores can create IMD problems ftom BC stations etc, 
which is one reason why the solenoid type of inductor is used.
