On all bands.  Recalibrated the VCO and got  E 00005. ERR VC 4.  After 
45 sec there was a change in the background noise.  At first the rx 
seemed way dead, then there was an increase in noise but no signals 
being received.  It might be time to send the radio to Elecraft because 
I think there is some other problem than the TXCO problem that showed up 
at first construction.
