Thanks very much for that Al, Interesting, there will obviously be a trade off if I take the padder route but I will try that first before considering other options, if I can't find a right value SLF the other possibility would be to alter the inductance, trouble is I have got the regeneration working quite well with the inductor I have over it's 500Khz tuning range and regen detectors don't like being upset.
I am not too worried about SLF in the RF tuning as the bandwidth of those tuned cicuits is quite wide, not too bothered either (within reason) if I build a VFO for it (bandset) as I plan to incorporate a 500Khz Xtal marker into the receiver so I can set the VFO (bandset) spot on.
