ALL the darned slugs are loose...

After I "solidfied" the HFO coil, things are noticeably better, but still far from perfect. 

Checking the mixer and RF coils, I find the slugs in those are loose also.

Each coil has a small piece of fibrous material forced into the top of the slug, but those have 
all lost their tension and are loose themselves.

Doing as Mike Everett suggested, I hear and feel much looseness in the entire coil assembly.

More later.
