I've just built an XG1, and it is not clear to me how to adjust the frequency using C6. According to the manual:

"the frequency of the XG1 can set to exactly 7040.00 by adjusting C6 with an insulated tuning tool. Otherwise leave C6 set at its midpoint."

With C6 centered, there is a definite tone at 7040.00, but the bandwidth of the tone is fairly wide, and it is higher pitched, and a good s-bar louder up around 7060.00. Should I trim C6 to bring what appears to be the loudest peak down to 7040 (this doesn't seem very precise)? Maybe I've goofed up and there shouldn't be any bandwidth to the tone (i.e., maybe is is supposed to be a precise tone)?

Any suggestions on how to "calibrate" the XG1 would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Greg, ki4mmm
