[Hammarlund] BFO - Q-Mult Pot for HQ-100

[Mark Johnson]

Apologies to all who have read this post.....I made  a slight error. Where I said, "That is, you crank the pot from the normal end  stop  counterclockwise to switch off," I should have said switch ON. 

Thanks for the help.

> The BFO / Q-Mult Pot, 10K, R13, is scratchy beyond a simple cleaning. What is interesting about this 10K pot is that the BFO activation switch is on the back of the pot, but works in reverse. That is, you crank the pot from the normal end  stop  counterclockwise to switch off.
