[R-390] Need value of R235 from a RF deck

[Craig C. Heaton]

Good Morning All,

Every now and then I get the urge to tackle a little issue with my 62
Almelco R-390A. The crystal calibrator isn't quite right! If I use the
trimmer to zero beat WWV life is good until I turn the calibrator off or
switch to a different band. Then the calibration is as much as 20-30 KC's
off. 

I've used different crystals from working R-390A's, checked voltages,
resistances, changed tubes, etc. The only thing I can find, easily, is the
R235 in my RF deck measures 47K, not the 47 ohms listed in the Y2K manual.
Even with the discrepancy of this value, I don't think it would have any
effect with the operation of the calibration circuit.

Getting ready to change out some silver mica caps at this stage. So, is
there anyone out there in cyber space that has a RF deck they can flop belly
side up and check the resistance of R235 for me?

Thanks,
Craig
