Thanks 🙏

Remember, the BFO couples to the IF chain via a “gimmick” capacitor on the schematic, which in real life is a pair of twisted insulated wires. You can vary the BFO coupling by futzing with the twisted wires.

Thanks. First time I ever heard of a gimmick capacitor I racked my brain looking for it. Then thought somebody cut it out and twisted the wires together. Your knowledge is much appreciated.

@@timtimeprojects3576 You welcome. That was my initial impression, as well.
