[QUOTE="kubusi, post: 802611, member: 19010"] Very nice to have an unbuilt Heathkit to assemble, just one little word of advice, before you start putting it together check all the capacitors. Two unbuilt kits of mine I have found a few defective capacitors, one a FM signal generator and the other a panoramic receiver adaptor, I have substituted new components for the dud ones. Another unbuilt kit I obtained a while back a Mohican receiver, since completed, I had the same problem and had to alter the PCB to accept the replacement capacitor as the original was not a standard type. Enjoy putting it together, they were great fun building those Heathkits, as I type this I am looking at two Heathkit items I built many years ago, still in regular use. Hope it works perfectly first time you power it up. [/QUOTE]
