[Amps] 3CX3000 tuned input calibration

[Rick Stealey]

Yes you can use a 50 ohm resistor right across the tuned circuit.  I aligned 
my input circuit this way, using the values from the K8RA amplifier in QST, 
20 years ago.  It called for 4000 pf capacitors in the pi net and 3.31 uh on 
160 m.  I checked it with an MFJ259 SWR set.  Most all of the tuned circuits 
using his values hit right smack in the band.  On two of the bands I had to 
take a turn or two off of the toroids to get the dip in the band.  If you 
need more info from the article let me know.  I think it was Sept 1986.
