That's not the same thing, Mike. The wavetrap in the RCA is designed to knock out coastal marine stations that used to broadcast close to the IF frequency.
For you to reduce the image at 590 you need to attenuate the 1500 signal with a trap.
Has your set been aligned accurately? Image rejection is accomplished in the RF/Antenna stage. Its never 100%, though. Sets with a tuned RF amp stage will perform best in regard to image rejection.
