! ! 19. Solder L4 in place.
! ! 20. Locate the 7.040 MHz crystal (metal can, two wire leads). Install at
Y1 and solder.
This completes stage 2 construction of the VEC-1340 40-meter kit. After
checking for errors, you may now move on to the final stage of construction.
VEC-1380K 80-Meter Transceiver Kit
! ! 1. Find the 4.7 pF disc ceramic capacitor (4.7). Install at C13 and solder.
! ! 2. Find the 68 pF multilayer capacitor (68 or 680). Install at C15 and
solder.
! ! 3. Find the 100 pF multilayer capacitor (101). Install at C18 and solder.
! ! 4. Find the 180 pF multilayer capacitor (181). Install at C2 and solder.
Locate two (2) 470 pF multilayer capacitors (470).
! ! 5. Install a 470 pF at C23 and solder.
! ! 6. Install a 470 pF at C25 and solder.
Locate four (4) 820 pF multilayer capacitor (821).
! ! 7. Install a 820 pF at C14 and solder.
! ! 8. Install a 820 pF at C24 and solder.
! ! 9. Install a 820 pF at C27 and solder.
! ! 10. Install a 820 pF at C28 and solder.
Locate three (3) 10 uH molded chokes (brown-black-black-gold or silver).
! ! 11. Install a 10 uH choke at L1 and solder.
! ! 12. Install a 10 uH choke at L2 and solder.
! ! 13. Install a 10 uH choke at L3 and solder.
Locate two T50-2 toroid coil forms (½" donut-shaped form, red color code).
Also, find the #24 enameled coil wire provided with your kit.
! ! 14. Wind forty (40) turns of #24 enameled wire onto the T50-2 form.
Note that turns are counted inside the form, and each turn is pulled
tight before winding the next. Spread the windings out, distributing
over 80% of the form's circumference.
! ! 15. Trim each coil lead to ½" in length and tin with solder.
