Hello Walt,
Thanks very much for your explanation of the problem (:->)...

~ The thing you get into is that any ham band only receiver that does it
directly (the 1st LO is tuned to cover the band) is going to have a very
small tuning cap -- 10-15 mmf maximum or something like that.
So, if you try to extend the range by going to a larger tuning capacitor,
you end up in the "general coverage" two dial receiver category, and need
the extra complication of a bandspread capacitor and dial?
