But we don't really know that. Do we? The other possibility is simply a higher dynamic range before the first narrow band filter. With a really good dynamic range RF amp and big enough mixer drive, a single conversion tuner should work OK. This assumes that if it uses some sort of electronic tuning on the pre-preamp tuned circuit that that circuit itself is linear.
