3.10 Install capacitors C5 and C8
These capacitors are band dependent. They add parallel capacitance to trimmer capacitor
C1 to bring it to the required value. The kit contains all required capacitor values. Install the
capacitor(s) appropriate to your band. Refer to the following table to find the correct
capacitor value(s) for your band. Where “none” is indicated in the table, do not install the
corresponding capacitor.
Band C5 Value C5 Label C8 value C8 Label
80m 39pF “390” 22pF “220”
60m 39pF “390” 22pF “220”
40m 39pF “390” none
30m 22pF “220” none
20m none none
17m none none
