I think i have solved the problem. The cause seem to be the coil 
toroidal in the botton. When the botton cover is instaled, the upper and 
lower limits in the firsts BFO adjusts fail in the upper limit, the bfo 
is unstable at upper limit. If the botton cover is not instaled it work 
fine. I add a more long separator, only a bit longer than the one 
supplied with tha kit and tha interaction of cover over the BFO coil is 
now aceptable and upper and lower limist meet specifications as manual 
say. I do Call Fill again and it adjust as expected.

Thanks by the help.

Jesus, EA1DAV.
