If you get it working, without smoke, feed its input with an RF signal generator to find out what IF frequency was chosen at the time it was assembled.  You should see a nice spike or pip, as you move the generator frequency across the HO-13’s IF input frequency.  Of course, you could also use the manual or schematic to see which components, that determine its input frequency, were installed.  Unfortunately, the extra, unused components for other IF frequencies are usually lost.  It’s too bad that the kit builders didn’t place the extras somewhere inside the cabinet.
