> Just completed the 1320 QRP radio. Couple of questions:

Remove speaker. Install small keyer using spacers from keyer board to
speaker mount holes. Check out the Island Keyer products and others. Drill a
hole in back panel for the paddle jack.

Remove C-1

Use a small T type tuner such as one of the cheap TenTecs, MFJ etc. These
will act as high pass filters and reduce BC interference.
> 4. Tuning is critical-normal?
Rather broad on my 1340. Haven't tried the 1320.
