The TNF operates at the IF and inside the AGC loop. It just happens that
the IF is usually at an audio frequency so people get confused.

The key is that when you notch out a noise source, its effect is removed
from the AGC as well so the noise won't "capture" the AGC and reduce the
receiver gain. Also the noise, if it is not constant, will not cause the
receiver gain to "pump".

So, if I understand your question properly, and you are asking if it will
act more like an "RF" notch filter or an "audio" notch filter, it will
react like a traditional "RF" or "IF" notch filter.

Bottom line: Flex did it the right way.
