[R-390] Needed: T203, RF Slug, Oldham spring

[Dennis Wade]

Hi everyone,

        Swapped out the core from T203 with the adjacent (4-8) slug
rack, and re tweaked the antenna coils.  The different slug aligned
very differently than the previous one, so I will infer that the
original one does indeed not belong.  The suspect core behaves has the
same odd behavior in the 4-8 mc/s rack, i.e. has to be screwed ALL the
way in, almost to the point where it falls into the core, without
reaching an obvious peak.  (signal level keeps increasing while
turning the core in without peaking).

      So, does anyone have a spare RF slug?

       However, the proper slug does not apparently help the deafness
of the 2-3 and 3-4 mc/s bands.  Therefore, I'd like to swap out T203
before I decide I have to pull the RF deck again :(.  Rocking the
bandswitch doesn't seem to affect the deafness at all, so I'm hoping
that helps eliminate the bandswitch itself.  Or am I just kidding
myself.

      Anyone have a spare T203?

      And finally, (it comes in 3's), my Oldham coupler spring went
into orbit recently and I'd like to get that back on the coupler.  I
could use at least one, and a couple of spares if anyone has any to
part with.

      Reasonable costs gladly paid.

               Thanks!

              Dennis
