thanks Alf,
so, did you end up with C95 47pF or 82pF?

Yes, C95 is 82pF, only because I did not have anymore 47pF polystyrene, also with the values I had used for C91,92 being only 680pF each, the tuning range was somewhat reduced, however I have now changed C91,92 back to 1nF, now tuning
range is from 7.007MHz to 7.268MHz, frequency stability not effected, I have 100k pot for main tuning in series with a 1k pot for fine tuning which gives 6.1kHz range. Now I can tune a conversation, go make a cuppa, come back and still be tuned to the same frequency:-)
