Yes, by using pots for R1 and R2. Initially set R1 (1Meg pot) for max R, R2 (50K pot) for min. Adjust R2 (increasing R) for a peak pulse out. Adjust R1 (decreasing R) for a PRF that does not heat up L1 or C4 too bad. NOTE: it will take 1/2 hour or so to see the effects of heat gain in L1 and C4. Try to do this calibration at the highest voltage the circuit will see (15V equalization in PV systems, 14.7V in automotive systems).
