On Behalf Of Rick Brashear owever, I find now that the variable capacitor on the receive VFO is having turning problems. It's one of those geared internally capacitors with one shaft inside another one. I guess the friction clutch or whatever makes those things tick is worn out or maybe oily. Does anyone have a solution for such a problem, other than replacing it?
Thanks, Rick/K5IZ Rick, Plug in a 8.4 Mhz crystal! Also, maybe the reduction drive Brian AF4K has for sale will somehow work in the G50 without major surgery. I find that the VFO in my G-50 is too unstable even for AM. I use a crystal instead. The same is true on my Gonset G-76. Regards, Jim JKO -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
