Tnx Dave,
    Good idea, Mike XDV and Dave are Decca gurus and I'm not sure if they still monitor this list.

Hi, Warren.
 
Mike G3XDV and David G0MRF have published information on converting Decca TXs. Perhaps a PM direct to Mike and Dave would produce more information.
 
From what I recall, you need to add more turns to the coils rather than pad the coils with more "C".

Hello to all of the Decca Navigator experts out there...

    I have an unconverted Decca 5501 transmitter which is marked "Red" - I believe that is 112kHz - would like to run it on 73kHz.  The tank coil reads about 80uH, can I just pad it down with more "C" to get to 73kHz or would that mess up the L/C ratio and thus lower the loaded "Q" ?

    Another question - anyone have a spare "Purple" Decca on 71kHz that they would consider parting with?
