There is a spring vendor online, but at seven bucks apiece plus shipping, I'll use them as a last resort. The spring currently on this receiver looks like it would fit on a Holley 650 ;-) TNX / 73, Steve, W1ES/4 I have seen suitable springs at hardware stores as a second try a small motor - lawn mower shop. The Drakes need only a small carburetor spring. The Holly 650 springs are a bit much hihi...I did add a piece of solder wick to the last one I did but the spring was 'OK' it seems to just serve the purpose of taking up any play in the screw but I really do not know.
Had the 'twins' on a bit with new EFHW antenna works well but am still playing with the matcher unit. -- Paul Gerhardt K3PG http://pgerhardt.blogspot.com QRP ARCI 6674 FP 274 "You must do this work with love or you fail." -- John Muir, from How to Keep Your Volkswagen Alive _______________________________________________ Drakelist mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.zerobeat.net/mailman/listinfo/drakelist
