[Elecraft] N0SS zero beat detector with KX1

[Frank C Van Cleef]

Greetings all,

Just finished installing and adjusting Tom's zero beat detector, and I must
echo others when I say that once again, Tom has a winner here.  The
little board was easy to assemble, SMT construction notwithstanding, and
worked perfectly the first time.  Real nice goin' and thanks, Tom!
