Update: The problem was at L33. Resoldered and replaced the wires correctly 
and got back to a good 5 kHz BFO range. Maybe a loose contact or a short on 
the coil.

BTW, I got a tip from another Elecrafter: Since the sole purpose of R116 is 
to retain L33, adding ''spaghetti" sleeving to the leads of the 5.1 megohm 
resistor may prevent accidental shorts of few turns of that coil.
