This model was manufacturerd in the late 1980s and early 1990s and is considered the best crystal-mixing receiver ever made by some. It has two roofing filters of 2.4 kHz and 1.5 kHz that can be cascaded. In the second IF it has 2.4 kHz, 1.8 kHz, 500 Hz and 250 Hz crystal filters. Needless to say it is very selective and sports wonderful low noise RX circuitry.
