I have had some delays, mostly of my own making. I have finished the
K1-4 RF board and the KFL1-4 Four-Band Filter Board. My primary conserns
have been the "4-band Receiver Alignment" section  (pp. 17-18) of the
KFL1-4  instruction manual. I had little confidence with my "T & L"
construction on the filter board and the RF board. I think that I was
able to adjust my 7 MHz, 10 MHz, and 14 MHz bands, but the 21 MHz band
tuned at 20.04 MHz instead of at the mid-band frequency of 21.04 MHz.

I have replaced all of my "T & L" devices with ones that I purchased
from Mychael Morohovich/AA3WF. A number of things seem to work smoother
and more accurately, but the 21 MHz band still tunes in at 20.04 MHz. I
know that I am missing something very basic, so if someone can advise me
I will be grateful. I have not gone on to the 4-Band Transmitter
Alignment section (Pp 19-22 yet). 

Many thanks in advance.
