[ARC5] Drift in BC-453

[Robert Eleazer]

I think the simplest approach would be to take a spare 85 KHZ BC-453 IF transformer and use it to build a solid state BFO.  The first successful oscillator I ever built used a big old Miller 455 KHZ IF transformer and a bipolar transistor.  Use of an FET should enable an even better BFO.

Add the BFO to an R-11A receiver, which I think has rather better construction standards than the WWII vintage sets.
