Next we need to remove extra 20m coil thats in the 15m spot and put the 10m coil there, then the new homemade 10 coil just to the right in the original 10m spot. You will need to add the appropriate caps. Read sb220 schematic for values.

the sb220 uses 2 coils marked 10. Theres one in the 15m tank .you can make the second. Also keep in mind sb220 and sb221 hl2200 arent wired the same on bandswitch. Its backwards.
10m coil..need to make another one
here's the schematic heathkit hid in the sb221. But clearly there's 3 coils in the 15m section to block anything above 24mhz
You can remove them all . One is a 20m coil, one is 10m, one is a trap.
The trap coil can be shortened to match the extra 10m coil we will need if we add 10m band...
Remove trap. For starters.
Then you need to add 2 contacts to make the 4 position wafer a 5 to add 10m position. Notch the stop tab to turn one more click. Add a silver strap to add 10m tank coil like sb220. Im in process now. U have both a hl2200 and sb220( that im recapping ) im posting for...
I understand some of this , I have to sit down and study it .
I abandoned the cobra. And I am going with the pc68xl only at this time.
I cant find my mixer but ive been using the turner plus 3 and it sounds very good from what i can tell. The band hasnt been open and i dont have locals here so...
Good deal. Enjoy your radio it will go wherever you want it and it can sound pretty good on AM as well. The bandscope edges are adjustable so if you want to see out of band you'll need to adjust them for say 11m .
Australia and new Zealand on a magnum 257 old orange 25w version with a very old palomar super Penetrator coil type On a mag mount. Think small monkey made
ive seen quite a few of them for sale broken. Absolutely would avoid it like the Plague there is no reason to play with crapy radios like this when there are so many other radios out there these days at very affordable prices.
Icom 718 is also terrible too . My list of ham radios to buy would...
Thats above my skill set.
Ive not looked at how the mauldulator works.
I suppose i could do something with a uniden grant or a cobra 140 i have or a pc244 maybe thats more worthwhile?
Yep for sure.
Any info on getting this radio to work well on 11m? I have 2 of them. One was modified and if i recall it is on 27 when it shows 29 but maybe only a few milliwatts out. My other one had been malcolmized. They work great on am . I got them for am on 40m and 80m
I have some experiments to try i guess. Im using the mic input. I have just clipped the wire at mic gain and tacked it to the board.
Maybe i should just add a relay to swith it out on rx
I think the limiter might be there on the 25 and not on the pc68xl. So ill check. Ill try the d10. Im looking for it on this...ok i see it , so direct direct.
Just for legacy reasons i have one.
