Re: The Drake 2B and its Frequency Spread Limitations


 

Hey Gary,
?
Here are some more pictures of my cabinet.? Yes, a previous owner stuck a Heathkit 100 kc Calibrator in place of the Drake 100 kc Calibrator.? A previous owner also replaced the 6X4 tube with two diodes.? I believe I read somewhere that this is a hack on the 2B, but I do not remember if the hack was an improvement over the use of the 6X4 tube or as a substitute if the tube cannot be located.? I would appreciate any words of wisdom that anyone has on these two situations (my Heathkit calibrator and the diode replacement of the 6X4 tube).

Other pictures showing the crystals that have been installed and the bottom of the chasis.
