In order to use these filters with the Argosy it was necessary to change the frequency of the BFO crystal and adjust three trimmer capacitors on the SS B Generator Board 80780 for slightly different frequencies.
Another annoying problem related to the Argosy's performance was the frequency instability of the PTO, which caused small, sudden jumps of a few tens of hertz in the received or transmitted signals.
The top-notch performance of the modified Argosy was finally complemented by the installation of a static (non-multiplexed) four-digit counter which displays the frequency of operation by reading the premixed PTO/ crystal oscillator's frequency.
