Chris,

Do a search for "Drake 2-LF".  It was a converter which plugged in the
crystal calibrator socket and converted 0.1 to 3.5 MHz to the 10M
range.  If you get a schematic, you can probably duplicate it.

The other approach you mentioned involved adding a crystal for the
160M range and necessitated modifying the preselector to cover 160 M.

Tom, AG9X (whose previous 2B has a new home)
