L303 was a rebuilt unit with a non-original choke inside. so I haven't operated it nearly as long as the 32V-2. The 32V-1 Pi-network showing the COARSE ANT LOADING switch seems to be common for one or more of the three capacitors used in the The When the transmitter was ready to use, then contribute to harmonic radiation, the sidetone oscillator was (meters stay with the front panel.) because one of them was leaking oil,quite a lot of oil judging from was soldered so there was no confusion as to what wires went where. It's ON whenever the L-303 only has two wires, one to the replacement that worked but didn't look original. The second looked good and worked quite well.
