Incidentally, I did the crystal replacement on my trusty old S/N 023, and
it REALLY made a difference. I had the problem often mentioned of seeming
low gain (having to to run AF Gain at max). After the replacement,I get
good results with AF gain at 9 oclock. Don't know if that's typical, but
worked for me.
