[Heathkit] WAS Dumb speaker question NOW SB-303 tweak

[rbethman]

Glen,

Just used what I have here for receivers and manuals.

More as another way to do it without introducing a Signal Generator.  
Both of mine are BAs also, a General Radio GR-1001A or a AN/URM-25D

Yes, it IS an SB-303.  I completely understand that!

The Heath RX-1 Mohawk is different from basically any other receiver in the fact that there is an i.f. gain control in addition to the "normal" r.f. gain and audio gain controls.  The RX-1 normally has more gain and therefore is more sensitive than most receivers.  In fact, there is often too much gain and the i.f. gain control has to be turned down to keep from overloading the receiver.  I have both an RX-1 and an SB-301.
