I found a 0.47uf cap in my junk box and replaced C31 with it. I've not had a
chance to have a QSO yet but just listening around I hear a big improvement.
Thanks all for your comments!

I believe there is a message in the list archives
from Wayne on this subject. But apparently this

Bill,
Decreasing C31 may decrease the attack time, and decreasing C67 will

If you are having trouble with the initial 'spike', then I would suggest
reducing C31 first.
You can experiment with the values.
Also take a look at Wayne's comments at

Ron's been doing some experimenting as have I using componants from out
junkboxes.
What we ended up with was changing C31 from a 2.2ufd cap to a 0.22ufd cap.

production units as well?
No, I don't think Elecraft has embraced that
