Thanks Radio Wrangler for your insights into capacitors for resonant circuits. I will order some NPO caps and have already ordered some silver/mica ones. That was on the basis that "all sorts of magic" go on in the design of an IFT and the fewer changes made to them the better. I'll try both types and see what sort of results I get.

Thanks wd40addict, I thought is might be a "feature"! Thanks for the link to your article. Turns out yours is one of the ones I found in a search for stuff about 770R. Hope you have still got yours.
