L.P.F. (Low Pass Filter) for 40 Meter R.F. Systems

Greeting Everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We built a L.P.F. (Low Pass Filter) design published in 1987 ARRL  hand-book in chapter 2 (2-44).
The circuit performs very well in 7Mhz freqency. The ARRL Hand-book has given the test chart as below:

Filter No.
Fco
3 dB
20 dB
40 dB
Max. SWR
C1, C5 (pF)
L2, L4 (uH)
C3
(pF)
87
7.54MHz
8.61
11.5
17.0
1.327
470
1.45
820

This filter works as it is with out any changes and modifications.

Below we have show the tested circuit without any modifications from the original circuit which is also show below.
