5b. Tack-solder C1, one of the Mica compression trimmer capacitors,  

using enough heat for a solid, good connection. 

 6. Install C3, the other compression trimmer, just like C1. 

 7a. Bend the leads of C2, the round trimmer capacitor, at right angles  so 

that it can also sit in a level and flat position. The two leads at one end go 
to the ground plane, and the single lead goes to the pad with C1. 

 7b. Install C2. 

 8. Install C4, just like C2. Now that you are accustomed to how easy good 

tack-soldering can be, and you can see some finished work on your PC 
board, this is a good time to begin making and installing the three coils and 
RF Choke.   

 9a. Cut a 1" length of #18 tinned bare wire and form it as shown, making a 

gentle loop around a tool handle. 

 9b. Install L1 using a pair of needle-nose 

pliers to hold it as you solder it in place. Let 
one end cool before soldering the other. 

 10a. Use another length of #18 tinned bare 

wire to make a 1-turn 1/4"-diameter coil. Spread the turn itself to 1/4" and 
trim the leads to approximately 1/4". Bend the ends as needed so that the 
coil sits in position as shown on the board. 

 10b. Install L2 the same way as you did with L1 in step 9b.
