Attention please Heathkit HW-16 owners
Hi, recently I picked up a Heathkit HW-16 and with a little repair and
tune-up, its back on the air. Great!, but the receiver seems to have a
problem that may be by design or may be something wrong. So far I can't find
the cause if it's not a design flaw. What is happening is the VFO seems to
get pulled slightly by strong signals in the band, somewhat annoying. It may
be that there just needs to be a buffer between the VFO and the mixer (both
part of a 6EA8). I wonder if anyone else has seen this happen with their
HW-16? Thanks...............T
