Julian,

i sumarize here same measures:

-RX/TX band coverage is  about 250 KHz. (14000 -14250 Khz and 7000-7250 Khz)
This coverage is possible adding a 68 pF ( NP0 cap.)  parallel to C2, so
the total cap. is 168 pF.
With this mod i have this frequency drift:
after 5 minuts warm-up: initial measurement ,
after 1/2 hour:  -130 Hz
after 1 hour: -260 Hz

I have only a 2 band filter board (40/20 m) so i have made measures only for
these  band.

Coverage on TX is, for all 250 KHz:  4-6 Watts

The mod. isn't yet Elcraft approved because Wayne, in this moment, is very
busy with others new projects and  suggest me to make more tests with others
HAM; so I am serching for betatester.
Wayne tell me that can test the mod. on the Elecraft laboratory later on
July or August.
