subject: Noisy Pager on 152.480

Help!
 
I live just a few thousand feet from Pager Hill, which features not
only a very noisy and active pager on 152.480 but an FM station to 
boot on 107.1  They're both causing havoc with my receiver.  Lots
of images!
 
I took care of the FM station by buying a Radio Shack FM trap, which
works great.  Now, I'd like to deal with the pager.  I've been thinking
about solutions....and I need advice.  What do you recommend?  A
notch filter?  Can I put notch filters in line?  I've got my FM trap
filter running on the line between my antenna and receiver.  Can I
put another filter in line?
 
Will a notch filter interfere with listening to other stations in the
150s?  Virtually all of New Hampshire is public safetying in the 150s
and I'm afraid I may not be able to hear them.
 
Any other solutions??
 
Thanks!
