As the magnetron ages, its output frequency will shift a little.<br />

To compensate for this, there is an adjustment for tweaking the main local oscillator tuning<br />

frequency. This is the potentiometer shown above and is located inside the display unit. It can be<br />

adjusted between +5V and +35V. The main tuning knob on the display unit is mostly for use as fine<br />

tune control.<br />
