I need a VERY sharp notch filter (or actually 3, if sharp enough) to reject FM broadcast stations from an antenna signal. The requirements are tough: a. VERY sharp - I need to measure spectra of broadband noiselike signals and the present LC filters make a far too visible hole. b. No other holes (or even ripples) in the pass band - 57 to 180MHz. c. Low loss. LC type circuits are not sharp enough. Using a crystal is out as it is too lossy and has many other smaller holes. A carefully made cavity may be the answer, but while I can find many ways to use a cavity to reject one frequency and pass another (standard diplexers), I can't see how to use one to only reject a frequency, while passing all others. Any help?
