When I change C22 on the control board, nothing changes on my frequency
display at all.  According to manual page 57, I should be able to change
the Oscillator calibration by changing C22.

Steps I did:
I have the frequency counter probe connected to TP3.
Switched to LSB.
I found the WWV signal at 10,000.51 ( I guess it is supposed to be at
exactly 10,000.00)

Should I desolder C22? =20

Thanks and 73

See the procedure for adjusting the 4 MHz reference oscillator in the
manual.=20
You are off 600 Hz and you should be able to get it down to 20 or 30 Hz.
