I’ve gone ahead and put together what I have in mind for the VGA cable with R/G/B out.
I was thinking that, if I am running output to Banana terminals for wire antennas, I would just design 75 Ohm filters to hard connect inside the little Aluminium box between the 3 RCA socket block and Bananas. See the first pic. It is going ahead smoothly despite requiring quite a bit of accurate hole drilling and hole matching with the 3 RCA socket board.I think it will be very neat.
Secondly, I have designed three Constant K 750 Ohm filters that are dual band:
60m & 40m, 30m & 20m and 17m & 12m. Whilst I have not built these all yet, I have modelled them on LTSpice and they look to have very suitable performance and all are using standard component values or a minimum combination thereof.
Here's the box showing how the VGA connector to RCA lead is used.
75 Ohm, 17 and 12m
75 Ohm 60 and 40m
I’m stopping at 12m now as I am not sure of the wave from a 17m or 12m Weaver generation, but the multiples of 48K, QRG and Sample rate seem to be close.
