Interesting Took the oscillator board apart last night and found C11 has a cold solder joint.
That explains it.
Its the variable cap that tunes the heater. Have not re-soldered it yet as I am having trouble getting enough heat in the area even with a soldering gun to tack the cap back on to the housing. Fortunately I have an even larger gun I will try today. This would indeed explain whi I had variable startups I hope. Especially when tuning the cap. For anyone of interest its 2-20pf johannson type. The manual says 1.5-15. Close enough. Will update later on if I solve the oscillator problem.
Good luck! I hooked on to the RF-feed and trimmed it for best response. Cheers, Magnus _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
