No need to re-peak the filters or re-calibrate the frequency readout. I did, however, have to adjust the turns on the VFO coil, to get the VFO range in spec. I don't remember if I had to expand or compress the turns. I am happy with the result. I get about 170 khz tuning range. Thats an average of 17 khz per turn. Not bad. And the backlite is a nice touch. 73 Rick Dettinger K7MW _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
