Hello Jim70563,

And while that someone is at it, tell me what a NFD6132C Hybrid FDS Mid/Hi SPT is ?

FDS = First Detector Stage ?

I am pretty sure the Mid/Hi SPT refers to the split.

It seems that the two pole/five pole refers to the filtering for the Front-end(FE)of the receiver. Some of the VHF units apparently have closer channel spacing than others requiring the tighter five pole front end.

Hybrid usually means a mix of two devices such as tubes and transistors. Maybe this hybrid involves both Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOS-FET's) and Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT's). Just a guess.

I suspect a Service Manual would explain these acronyms (all these remind me of working on the Boeing aircraft.)
