[Elecraft] XV144

[Don Wilhelm]

John,

I have looked through 3 versions of the transverter manuals (2 Field test
revisions and Rev C) that I have here on my computer and none of them have
any instruction that indicates the L17 core should be removed.

Double check your manual and if you have such an instruction, please provide
us the manual revision level and the page.

I vaguely recall something about a typo of this sort a long time ago, so if
you have an older manual than Rev C, you should download the latest version
from the Elecraft website.

In any case, L17 should be preset for 2 turns down from the top of the can,
and that means - do not remove the slug!

73,
Don W3FPR
