KIT ASSEMBLY:
Each of the following assembly steps is complete in itself. This means that you:
1) Identify the component called for,
2) Insert it into the proper location on the PC board,
3) Solder its leads to the PC board and,
4) Carefully trim away the excess lead wire. As you complete
each step, check it off and proceed to the next step.
1. Install switch S1 into its six holes on the PC board and solder all six pins.
Ignore the other set of six solder terminals on top of the switch.
2. Install the three RCA phono jacks, J1,2,3. Solder all four pins on each
jack.
3. Install J4, the DC power jack, solder all pins securely.
4. Install L1, the IF can style adjustable RF
transformer. Note that it will go in only one
way. Solder all five pins and the two
mounting tabs.
5. Install the 220 pf capacitor on the bottom
(solder) side of the PC board. The capacitor
connects between the pin of L1 that
connects to C4 and the ground lead of L1.
Keep the leads as short as possible.
6. Install L4, the plastic molded slug tuned coil.
Now the major 'landmark' components are installed and we'll go about putting in
the smaller parts. These components are spaced close together on the PC board,
so pay particular attention to the layout so you'll install them right the first time!
Also, we'll ask that you understand that install means to not only install the part,
but to solder it and trim the leads as well.
RF Oscillator Section
7. Install C7, 39 pf disc capacitor.
8. Install Q4, 2N3904 transistor. Observe correct placement of the flat side.
9. Install C9, another 39 pf disc capacitor.
10. Install C11, .001 uf disc capacitor (marked .001, 102, or 1nf).
11. Install C10, 100 pf disc capacitor (marked 100 or 101).
