This was covered in a post on the reflector a couple days ago - a small
padder capacitor from the junction of X3, X4 and C174 to ground may solve
your BFO low frequency problem.  Use 1 or 2 pf and recheck both ends of the
BFO range after adding it.

Normally 4912.86 can be low enough except in extreme cases - note that the
LSB BFO is set at 4913.7 which is well within your currently available BFO
range.
