Model 90 Tuning after cleaning tuning capacitor
#17

Just wonder about those padder condensers. They are finicky anyway. Could they have moisture? Had fits with one on a model 70 that I rebuilt. I've learned, aside from parts like caps, sometimes if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I have created more problems from doing this over the years, such as pulling locktal tubes from their sockets to 'clean', and the radio never worked again (yea, probably bad connection on pins), turning "all" to the controls back and forth to clean on an old tv, only to (internally and unwittingly) destroy a wire wound pot, followed by a chain reaction of red hot 5U4G tube, smoke and bye-bye power transformer. I may get reamed for this, but is my 2 cents.

If I could find the place called "Somewhere", I could find "Anything" Icon_confused
