Re: 2B Crystals


 

Thanks, Michael.

Yes, I've done this.? Problem is that there is no neg. voltage on the 20M position so pointless to tweak the 20M coil.? Seems to indicate that the xtal is not oscillating or a bandswitch issue perhaps.? Will check that.? Strange thing happened yesterday.? When I plugged in either of my two 20M xtals, the 15M xtal quit oscillating.? Take the 20M out and 15 starts right up again.? Now that sounds like a switch issue.? This morning while tuned up on 15M and peaked on the noise.? Good neg voltage and lots of noise that peaked on the preselector.? Plugged the 20M xtal in and 15 kept oscillating.? Go figure.? Time for a few resistance measurement on the bandswitch and a bit more DeOxit.

Still not getting either of the 20M xtals to oscillate.

Going to be out of town for a couple days but will let you know what happens in a few days.
