•
Unsolder the main & offset coils from the VCO board. Mark each coil as main and offset.
•
When Un-soldering, look at de-soldering points above; do not un-solder former mounting points.
•
Remember to cut glue off former mounting points. These are on the opposite side to the coil side. You
may have to heat up the glue to remove it.
•
Be careful of PCB pins, they bend and break easily.
•
Refit the old main coil into the offset's coil position.
•
Strip all wire from the old offset coil. Remember which way the coil was wound.
•
Scrape off old glue from former with scalpel and fine file.
•
If the IF frequency is 21.4 MHz then rewind with 8 turns of same size of wire [150 mm length, 0.63mm].
[or 146mm of Leon's enamel coated wire, 0.??mm] The same way as the old offset coil.
•
If the IF frequency is 10.7 MHz then rewind with 8 turns of same size of wire [150 mm length, 0.63mm].
[or 146mm of Leon's enamel coated wire, 0.??mm] The same way as the old offset coil.
•
Refit the old offset coil [now 8 turns] into the main's coil position.
•
Don't forget to use a hot glue gun or other method of securing the two coil formers to the ceramic board.
