I just made this change. 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.
