Default BDK, and anyone using the JRC NRD515.

you may want to check your filters. my older, lower
serial numbered, had this filter in it. the newer,
higher serial numbered, with the mods, didn't.
just a little heads-up i picked up at the Fest last
weekend.

Thanks, Man - seems like a potentially useful piece of data. *Good
luck with yours, a damn nice rig!

* Thanks Bruce. trouble is, those made-in-japan filter's were used
in a number of receivers from the 60s to the early 90s. which years
are bad, i have no info. and, how many radio manufactures used them
with their own name on them. so, for guys like me, who collect, it
could turn into a nightmare. BTW, the 515 is a super receiver. i play
with the stock one a few hours a week. vary quiet receiver. i have the
whole JRC run in my collection, except the "505". less than 800 made,
and super hard to find. the last one that popped up went for over $3k.
much more than i want to pay. enjoy your receiver.

Well, I don't have one yet - but I know them, and eventually hope to
have one. Thanks!
