Perhaps I was a bit too optimistic about THAT aspect of the C21 design. Your question prompted me to rethink that.

While the 5.0 to 5.5 MHz IF in the C21 does offer the three advantages of added selectivity of a 500 KHz wide IF, hum reduction and freedom from the presence of an on-frequency local oscillator, the method of using the PTO as a BFO does still allow the ambiguous sideband tuning issue.

Sorry for the error. I do make them from time to time, especially late at night.
