Do the two front end trimmer caps still have some "mesh" left, or are they 
at minimum capacitance? That may be your problem.

Subject: RE: [Repeater-Builder] MastrII Receiver Failure


I have a mastr EXEC II receiver (33 split) that I can't get sensitivity to
increase.

I replaced the fet as outlined below on the mastr II query.
No joy though.

I'm using an am/fm-1200s to tune the receiver.

.5~1uv is where the receiver is coming to life.

I have a couple vhf and uhf exec II receivers that tuned up nicely in the
.19~.2uv range so I "think" I'm doing/reading it correctly.

Original freq was in the 46~49mHz range.
Current crystal (icom sent to and received from Bomar) on 51.75mHz.

Any tips/hints/tricks to get a little more sensitivity?

Thanks for the bandwidth!
