    Locking the Clarifier on a 1st Gen 2970

    Thanks a million for that info , it is very helpful , next time I pop the lid on that I am going to see exactly what someone else did inside . What I really want is the CLR locked like it came from the factory and the radio back on freq. I don't know why people unlock these 2950/70 clarifiers...

    Locking the Clarifier on a 1st Gen 2970

    That thing is about 3.5 kc off on USB and LSB ( with the clarifier on 12 o'clock. The slugs no way had that much room to tune back on freq. This CLR mod is not like the one that Shockwav posted above. There's other parts clippity clipped lol . Oh well ....

    Please help your fellow skip shooter

    I thought with everything going digital you wouldn't need an external LP filter at all. Lots of decent old Drake and or Bencher LP filters out there. I wouldn't have anything Paradynamics in your house lol .

    Locking the Clarifier on a 1st Gen 2970

    The USB is on frequency when the Clar is at 11 AM and LSB its on frequency when its at 1 PM . I don't mind that its unlocked so much as it not being centered on each sideband. I could probably save a bunch of work , center it and re-adjust L19 and L20 ?
