I have an MFJ Noise Canceller that works pretty well and about as
advertised. It is not the be-all and end-all, nor do I have the
optimal antenna configuration going into it (it works best with two
similar antennas at about 1/4 to 1/2 wavelength, or antenna length,
apart - I have two dissimilar antennas), but it takes a chunk out of
the most offensive noise when I need it.

I'd be willing to try their more expensive model preselector for
$69.95; I may just do that one of these days, since a good deal of my
grief comes from two or three local 50kW transmitters on MW splattering
across 2-6 mHz. Mr. Parfitt has suggested (among other good ideas -
bless him) that the transmitters themselves may be to blame, and he may
well be right - nonetheless, if I can do something cheap to potentially
reduce their effects, it would be worth a try.

You do need to tighten all the screws and check all the connections
when you get their stuff. But I always take stuff apart anyway.

I an take anything apart,,, getting it back together again and workin is
the big thang.

You might want to look on Ebay.

This does not have a power supply and it is not known if it is working
so I would stay away from this one.

Went to the MFJ website & ordered the 956 preselector. Hope their products
are better than their website & ordering process! : }

Well I hope it does what you want it to do. In another thread you spoke
of co-channel interference and a tuner can't help you with that but it
will help you if you have an image problem.
