[TenTec] Want to "Borrow" a known Good 500 Hz, 9 MHz crystal filter

[Jerry Volpe]

I know this is a silly request, but I am willing to pay shipping both 
ways. I will only need it for a day or two. My problem is that I think 
the 500 Hz filter is going 'South' in my Omni-C... probably a bad 
crystal. This past weekend during the CW contest I noted noticeably 
weakened signals when going to that filter position. So much so that 
many normally marginal signals in the 2.4 or 1.8 kHz positions were 
simply gone in the 500 Hz position. Anyway, before I go out and buy a 
replacement filter I'd like to know if I have a problem or just 
imagining a problem. My Corsair II does NOT attenuate like this, but as 
a newer design it may have additional gain built in to compensate. As 
its 500 Hz filter is on a different IF frequency I can't swap them.
