I think you have later versions of the 1792.  My one only tunes in 10Hz
steps and I know others mentioned on this reflector have 1Hz tuning.
Wonder if the later version is specified down to a lower frequency.

Incidently, returning to an earlier topic, the current Naval standard HF
receiving antenna on board ships is an active whip, made from a 2m
length of 50mm diameter Al pole.   The amp is made from three E88CC
valves in parallel, operating in a cascode / common collector circuit.
A company somewhere is working on a solid state replacement based around
power FETs, but don't know the progress on that.   The amp is specified
as having a 50dBm third order intercept point and by my reckoning could
function as a power amp delivering over 10W.   That's linear !!!

Ships do have the advantage of a near perfect groundplane so presumably
they can get away with this sort of antenna to lower freqs than normal.

C1,4,11 are all marked as 1 not 0u1 on both the cd and the components

list. The only difference is that 1 is a polyester 100v whereas 4 and 11 are ceramics 50v. Unfortunately nowhere on the five sheets sent to me by the vendor is there an issue or date reference. Still, with the components

I had to hand, it now works, if out of spec.

Thanks to all who took the trouble to send information, it is much
appreciated.
