[Lowfer] Caps for 1700 kHz loops

[Jay Rusgrove]

Made a few measurements on various capacitors while I was checking =
Paul's double barrel trombone cap today. Results are at:

http://www.advancedreceiver.com/capture/Caps@1700kHz.jpg

The tests indicated that for high Q applications one should pick =
carefully even within the same series of capacitors. For example, =
different values of DM silver micas were tried (I have a drawer full of =
them) and varied considerably. A 1200 pF DM19 was tried right after the =
1000 pF DM19 that's shown and it tested C=3D1221 pF/Q=3D1904.=20

Hope Paul let's me try his vacuum variable when it arrives. I promise =
not to let it roll off the table.
