If you really love your regency, change the if filter. Tighten up the front end with some extra cavities and a notch. Getting rid of interference is easy, a mix is another ball game. The older commercial radios had some very neat front ends. Stay away from any type of synthesized radio on a mountain top. They are to broad and pass 6 MHz like its next door. Master 2 or Micor is my choice for the hill. Ron WA6UNM
