[Heathkit] Can HO-10 be made to work with SB-303 for viewing of IF?

[peter markavage]

Most likely, you would have to pull the 12AU7 and circuitry and replace
it with a tuned input and output vertical amplifier. Get the schematic
for the SB-610 and look at the dotted box on the left for vertical
amplifier for 3000KC to 6000KC. This vertical amplifier uses a 6EW6 tube.
Parts are off the shelf except for the input and output coils. You can
use a dip meter to set up "junk box" coils, or find some parts rigs that
you can scrounge some 3395 IF coils.
