Hi people. I just picked up a Heahtkit SB-620 "scanalyzer" with the
corect 455 khz coil for Collins IF, but it did not come with a manual.
Despite many internet searches I could not find the details on how to
tie into the IF mixer stage ahead of the filters so I could use the
panadapter function I plan to use the spare phono jack on the back,
but any recommendations on isolation caps/resistors to give a good
signal but not adversely load the IF stage? I did see some brief
comments (not related to Collins use) talking about choosing non-lossy
coax. I also found an article where someone was converting a SB-620
setup for 455 khz back to Heathkit 3395 khz IF and they had added a
transistorized isolation buffer amp (but inside the SB-620).
I welcome any recommendations/experience.
