Hi Steven,

Please read the Swan and Siltronix Radio "care and feeding"
information found on my Swan and Siltronix Radio web page.

www.radiowrench.com/siltronix

The drift fix should start off with a good cleaning and
conditioning using the information I describe in the pages.

Don't crack open the vfo box until you've read my information
and asked a few more people for help.

The radio probably hasn't run in a while... it might need
new filter caps in various places. The contacts all need to
be cleaned really well and restored using the proper chemicals
and lubricants.

The unit probably has a lot of moisture build up. When I
rebuild radios... a temp cycle and moisture bake out are
always part of the process.

Email me through the web page or through the yahoo groups
I frequent if you have more questions. You really don't
need the added vfo box mods if you're patient with the proper
rebuild.

cheers,
skipp
