- Receive SSB with a S-38! In this video we review the clean up of the controls, trimmer caps and chassis. We replaced two tubes as well. 455 Khz full alignment along with initial BFO alignment. An overview of oscillator alignment is shown. A modification to the BFO was completed to order to receive SSB with a full demonstration. We will complete two more videos on full alignment and the BFO modification later.
-Sorry in advance for our camera. Seems when auto focus engages it also changes the video size. We are unable to prevent it and it seems like a firmware issue. We will in the upcoming weeks ahead, replaced the camera.

What is the difference between a BFO and a VFO ? What is a good place to purchase the alignment diddle sticks from ?

@@thomas-i5o7hI've posted a basic answer to your question on our Facebook page. I hope it gets you pointed in the right direction.
Nice work! What is the mod in the BFO to listen to SSB ?? you did not mentioned here and never made another video (as mentioned in the video)? Did I miss it? thanks!
Ive watched this 3 times and still havent seen him 'add' anything to it since this model comes witn a BFO unlike mine. All he has done is tweaked and peaked the IF coils for selectivity and sensitivity.
Starting to sound really good, can’t wait to hear it after final alignment
You know this is a simple little receiver. What amazes me is with one simple mod, it receives sideband so well. I am just starting to film the next edition. Stay tuned and please join our Facebook Page. facebook.com/MikesRadioRestorationRepair/ Cheers
