Richard I think most are "VFO" controlled... Centre of activity appears to be between 502-503 with beacony things nearer the edges. If you came up on 502.5 you wouldn't go far wrong! Dave. 2009/5/8 R
Chris Have you tried a can of "freezer" spray to identify where the problem lies? Is it the ferrite aerial or is it the FET amplifier? If you have enough gain then a little negative feedback on the F
