[ ] R-38, 150K ohms (brown-green-yellow)
[ ] L-7, 50 turns #36 on T-37-6 (yellow) core
Note: Do not secure L-7 to the PCB until you are sure that
you have the desired tuning range. You may have to
add or delete a turn if you want something other than
the standard tuning range.
Once you are sure you have the proper tuning range
you can secure the VFO inductor by cutting a small
scrap of hot-melt glue, placing that inside the toroid
and melting it with the tip of your soldering iron. Be
sure to wipe the iron tip soon afterward or it will
smell like baked hot-melt glue.
[ ] C-38, 160 pf Variable Capacitor. Polyvaricon used as main tuning. This is a front panel control
and needs to be mounted on fairly stiff leads to minimize the
potential for vibration.
