     Is there a list of serial numbers for the HQ-129-X?  I 
am curious about the age of mine.  I think its a late one 
because the lettering on the panel is all white.  I am not 
sure what other changes, if any, were made.
     Mine works like a charm but I've never been able to fix 
the large calibration error on the 80 meter and 40 meter 
band spread scales.  The variable cap sections look fine and 
I am stumped about what else could cause the problem.  20 
meters and 10 meters are very close.  On both those bands 
the LO is _below_ the signal frequency.  Its not possible to 
get it there on the 40 meter band, not enough range in the 
adjustments, so I think it is supposed to be above the 
signal on those bands.
