[Elecraft] VCO Alignment

[W3FPR - Don Wilhelm]

Tim,

I would venture a good guess that you are actually reading 17.2 millivolts.

If that is the case, check the 4v line out of the thermistor board - pins 6
and 7 (or U6 pin 5 - same line).  I would also speculate that you will find
the voltage there at 0 volts (ground).  Check the back of the thermistor
board carefully for solder bridges.

Don W3FPR
