I want to fine tune the temp compensation by adjusting the resistor RA,
currently at 33k and would like to confirm my thinking before starting.
My K2/100 drifts down about 50Hz after 30 minutes from turn on and
stabilizes. After a good period of transmitting which gets the fan on high
it will drift down another 40 to 50Hz. The PLL range is 13.26kHz
The uncompensated oscillator drifts down with a temperature increase
therefore I need to further increase the compensation. To achieve this I
need to decrease the value of RA. Perhaps 27k or 22k? Have I got this
right?
