For you Baltimore City scannists:
I was doing some early Xmas shopping and noticed that the FM 88-108 filters for sale at radiofilters.com are on sale for USD25 until the end of the year. I have used one for quite a while with great results on a Winradio (I think I wrote a mini-review months ago here--hafta search for it later)...
Of special note is that the center frequency is 98.0MHz; does a good job of knocking out WIYY-FM at 97.9MHz...
And no, I don't work for radiofilters.com, I picked one of them up months ago because it was cheaper than the PAR Electronics equivalent, and did the job perfectly well considering the radio I was using it with is plagued with intermod anyway because of the wide band reception capability. When used in conjunction with an old Grove tunable filter set at around 153MHz, makes City scanning a whole lot more productive.
