I did as one poster suggested. I removed the antenna from my
receiver, tuned around while transmitting, and discovered the
following:
(Crystal is 7110 kHz)
at 3554 kHz, signal is S8
at 7110 kHz, signal is S6
at 14218 kHz, signal is S6
at 21326 kHz, signal is S7
at 28433 kHz, signal is S5
I'm probably going to rebuild this rig, without the circuit board.
Many thanks to all who gave me advice on this. Any further comments
are also much appreciated.
Build it "ugly style" on an unbroken sheet of copper-clad board, and try
a ferrite bead or two in the base and/or emitter leads of the
transistors. The FAA and your local cellular-phone company will thank
you.

I didn't look at the pictures, but someone said something about long
leads to coils and maybe variables. Sometimes it makes sense to make
the circuit board used for the "ugly construction" the front panel, or
at least mount it flush with the front panel. Then, all the controls
can be mounted on the circuit board, near where they are connected and
with the actual shaft coming out the circuit board, yet they can be accessed
from the front panel.
Or mount the controls 90 degrees to the front panel, but again have
them mounted on the circuit board so the leads are short.
