Title: National NC-300 IF can needed Post by: WV9R on November 30, 2008, 10:35:30 PM I'm in need of a IF can for my NC-300, the one that I'm looking for is noted as T 5 in the schematic. I beleive it might be the reason my oscillator isnt oscillating :D If anyone has such a beast or know where I might be able to get one please let me know. As always I'm open to suggestions. Thanks Ray

Thanks Ray

I don't have a skizmatic handy for the NC-300 but if the oscillator uses a 6C4, I'd try replacing it (with several different brands if necessary). I've found Raytheon 6C4s just won't oscillate in some circuits. |
