Alex, Common problem, easy fix. Take a strip from a candy wrapper and put is along side the slug, will tighten it up and you can tune it then. You may have to play with the width of the strip a bit to get the correct tightness but it works. I bet Teflon tape would also work. Hope this helps....

I find that the coils in the mobile exciters don't hold their ferrite slugs properly and they fall out, slide and just don't tune right. Also, it seems that the output transistor goes bad if the exciter operates mistuned from a ferrite slug sliding out a little or just not staying tuned. Has anyone tried replacement coils...or is the mobile exciter not worth the effort? ... Alex Yahoo! Groups Links Yahoo!
