Parts are on the way...

First IF = 45 MHz
Second IF = 10.7 MHz

Any point in going further to 455 KHz for a third IF or just stick
with the 10.7 - (MC1350 plus IF transformer) scheme?

I'd probably jack the IF up to 45 MHz. (use TV parts; this is the TV IF
frequency) or 70 MHz. (satellite IF frequency), and then downconvert to
either 21.4 or 10.7...there are cheap crystal filters at both frequencies.

In the meantime, any other suggested improvements or hints are
most appreciated (e.g. "up the IF from 10.7"?)...!
