[Boatanchors] SX-62 osc.freq's

[Olaf Madsen]

Help needed,

I am in the process of re-capping and aligning a SX-62,.--

Bands 1,2,3,4 (the ''AM'' bands ) use a 455 kc IF,---Bands 5 and 6 (the 
''FM'' bands) use a 10.7 mc IF.

I am sure that the oscillator freq. for  bands1,2,3 is 455 kc  HIGHER than 
the Dial freq,----What is the oscillator freq. for band 4,the highest ''AM'' 
band  (15 mc -- 32 mc)???--- is it higher or lower than the Dial 
freq.????---e.g. with  20 mc on the dial should the occillator be set at 
20.455 mc or at 19.545 mc ???

The manual does not have any info in this regard and I hope someone  with a 
good running SX-62 can help and check by listening on another receiver for 
the oscillator heterodine..

BTW ---Is there any difference here between the SX-62 and the SX-62A,which 
is waiting to be worked on ???

Tnx fr ur help es 73 de Olaf,KF4TP.
