Nice work, Ed. Nine valves to play with and lots of shortwave bands so there was plenty to go wrong. Looks like you were lucky insofar as the em34 magic eye still glows green. Re BFO, if you have a signal generator that is reasonably stable and with a frequency dial that isn't too coarse you can just tune it to approx same frequency as the PE80 and that will enable you to resolve SSB after a fashion. You might know this already - if so sorry for teaching you to suck eggs. Cheers, Jerry
