[Heathkit] Is there an HR10B expert in the house?

Hi John!!

         Yup!!  I remember that from many years ago when I built my first one.

         Switch assy isn't that hard to remove.  BTW, I've seen mistakes in 
that area before.  I think that there may have been a mod
put out that had you change the padding caps to move the freq coverage for 
the band as well.  Remember that, since these were kits,
everybody thought that they knew as much as the guys that engineered the 
thing in the first place, so lots of things got changed once
the piece was built and working.
