[James Liles]

Hi Bob:

What was the heterodyne scheme used with the W2EWL --- what was the VFO 
range?  Kindest regards Jim K9AXN

You can take a look at mine and even hear some audio from it (albeit a
little off-frequency) here:

Scroll down to the bottom of the page.  I had a lot of fun finishing it
up and getting it going, but have not been able to overcome 3rd harmonic
VFO problems on 20 meters, thus it's working on 75 only at this time.
While there are compromises, I give  Anthony Vitale a lot of credit for
turning the Dome/Norgaard design into a practical transmitter that could
be built by lot of average hams (and was!)
