I'm now waiting for the 6 way connectors to arrive. Also, the VFO out is now from CKL1 not CLK0 to clear the screw hole a bit.

This one is 12Hz high without calibration. Not to bad I think.

FYI, this is my SMT solder hot plate.

I've just got a temperature controller for it but have not used it as yet.
Somehow I do not think a steam iron should get this hot!

I have a Teleradio AC-5112S that is the same chassis. It only has AM and one of the sidebands, probably USB, but I will modify the code to fix that. When the ritary switch selects SSB, the fron buttons will chose USB or LSB, I hope ;)

But I want to try the new VFO in it so, here is my 3D printedfront.

The push buttons are not needed, or maybe one, the NB/ANL, and I can add that as a toggle switch. There is a blanked hole that I can drill out for it later. Then a front label will dress it up.
Keep watching to see how it goes.\
The .stl is still named for the AX-144 and it will fit the range of radios that make use of that chassis and case size.
