Hi John: You're quite right. The current manual says to take it out, then in a subsequent step it says to position it two turns from the top.
Sorry about that! L17 has had a hard life, figuring out where to put it. I double checked with the design engineer. He says to put it in about 2 turns, then when you peak the adjustment, don't be concerned if the "peak" is with the core almost all the way out of the core. In that case, just take it out. This is a very broad adjustment and not really at all critical. I'll update the manual accordingly. We're going to have L17 in the core for ALL the transverters, then simply remove it if that's where the peak response occurs.

In the XV144 manual Initial setup Part 1 Stage 2 it states removal of L17 for all except XV432. Stage 3 has L17 preset to 2 turns down from the top of the inductor can for a XV144 Should it be left as per stage 2 or fitted as per stage 3? Any info appreciated All best John _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
