Dan, I have 2 of the USL Contact 23. What do you want to know about them. I have one working well and one that just hums. The crystal configuration is simple math and I have a schematic and a picture of the tube and coil layout. email me at mrmeter@juno.com if you need any of this. Hr

I was getting back swing on the meter when I transmitted. Also there are two adjustments on the back that aren't labeled.... Dan

This schemo came from my CB Tricks DVD.

The adustments on the back are probably the final Tune and Load. The one that looks like it has more capacitance will be the Load control. Can't go wrong peaking each one for max modulated power.

Best of luck and 73

Thank you for the schematic, I saw it at the mirror cbtricks site... A schematic wouldn't do me any good without the background to understand it...
