Let me add that it is pretty hard to beat these things as a receive system in combination with the SDR-1000. Steve uses high livel mixers with good IP3's. I like the 0 dB gain models and then I put what NF and gain I want in front of it depending on my application. After you add enough gain to make a fractional dB noise figure front end (say EME style), you still have a positive system input IP3. This is important in areas where you have strong signals such as all over the northeast or the signal of the ham neighbor down the street you have to talk to.
