Hey folks,

I'm working on a GE Mastr II high band repeater.  Someone gave me some crystals 
that were made up for 146.010 RX.  I installed one in an EC ICOM and the best I 
can adjust for is 146.0064, which sounds really scratchy when I inject a >3k 
deviation signal on 146.010.  When I tune the monitor down to 146.0064, the RX 
audio cleans right up.

I've backed out the screw until there's no more threads left in the ICOM.  Is 
there a capacitor I can change or add to give me a little more tuning range to 
the ICOM?  I just need the crystal to go up a hair more (400 Hz on the crystal 
freq).

I know I'm promoting cheapness by not buying another crystal, but the club 
doesn't have much money to spend.

Thanks,

Jared
