Regency Imperial II 11.250 MHZ Crystal Swap

[cadillaccharlie]

Hi all. I swapped the 10.850 MHZ crystal for channels 1-4 with a 11.250 MHZ crystal to get channels 36,37,38 & 40 so I can talk on LSB on these channels. I got the crystal oscillating on 36,37,38 & 40 and hear station traffic. The issue I have it that I cannot tune these LSB stations in clearly with the VFO clarifier. Is there an adjustment on the VFO to rectify this issue? All the rest of the channels 5-23 work fine. As usual I appreciate any help that anyone can offer.

Are you sure that the 11.250 crystal is on-frequency and outputting the proper transmit frequency? If not then it's no surprise that the receiver is also off.
Also be aware that the Regency Imperial is a double sideband (DSB) transmitter. It transmits both upper and lower sideband at the same time.
