Easy answer —

Your sample Lankford-Misek-Ratzlaff phaser
Does not have actual matched 50 ohm potentiometers in the “fine” controls —
They are “faked” 50’s using fixed resistors across the POT - which results in 
squirrelly, unpredictable or unstable nulls. 

All M-L-R PHASERS “sold” since that beta was built have ceramic or wire wound 
pots built and deployed like Lankford made his. 

Dallas Lankford described his 2007 Phaser as the best one ever - which is why 
Nick, Steve and I improved on it - making it significantly superior to the 
clunky Quantum Phaser and massively less expensive than the Cadillac-Tank 
DX-engineering Phaser. 

And with this e-mail, I’ll expect pedantic pencil pointing, finger waving and 
demands to see schematics and exact details on all changes.

I’m currently building 6 more simultaneously.

I’m specifically not selling them to “gotta have one / gotta shelve one...” 
they are for active DXERS actually posting regularly on IRCA or one of the 
other clubs. 

I’ll take questions now.
