[Boatanchors] Re: [Hammarlund] SP-200 (T-5 This Time)

[Al Parker]

Hi Joe,
    In my schematics, T-5 is the BFO coil, makes up a 455kc oscillator.
It contains:  C-48 - 195mmf, C-49 - 600mmf, C-50 - 100 mmf.  From their
low values, I 'd suspect they're micas, but susceptible to leakage.  If
your BFO is working OK, on freq., you can probably just leave them alone,
without much worry.
