Has anyone on the reflector identified a source for negative temp
coefficient capacitors in the N750 range available in small capacitance
ranges (e.g., 1 pfd through 20 pfd in 1 and 2 pfd steps)? I am aware
of one US manufacturer (Presidio Products) making a wide range of those
components, but apparently only through contract with defense and
aerospace manufacturers, nothing available (according to their local
rep) through distributors or mail-order houses (Newark et al).
These caps are used in the HBR 11/13 Hartley oscillator design to
stabilize frequency drift caused by temperature rise on start-up.
