[Boatanchors] Heathkit Mohican question

[Jay Wicklund]

Hi all, not sure that a Heathkit Mohican is fully qualifies as a boatanchor, but 
it comes close.  I built this one in the early 60s and just pulled it out to 
play with.  It works fine still, but needs realignment; which brings up my question.

For as long as I've owned it, band B (1.6MHz - 4.0 MHz) has been less sensitive 
than the other bands and the background noise level (connected to a signal 
generator or dummy load) has been lower.  My question is: does anyone else 
remember this as being characteristic of the Mohican?

Representative numbers:

Band    Freq   Vin
B       1.8MHz  12uV
B       3.8     3.3

C       4.5MHz  2.8
C       8.5     1.2

D       9.5     3.3
D      19.5     1.25

E      20.5     5.9
E      30.5     0.78uV
