1934 16B 5 band
#46

The latest is that I found that the 700mmfd cap placement is some what critical. I had close to the chassis and the 76 socket. Pulling it up and away helped a good deal. As it stands now everything is working ok w/the exception of the low end of band 5. The catch is that the line voltage thru the variac is abt 127 and my line is abt 113volts. Could just be the season w/the air conditioners running and such. Will probe in to it some more.
Did bake the sw coil. It looked ok and resistances were good too and clean the band switch again after giving a spray job. Just the spray was pretty worthless. Scrub it with a tooth brush and used 2doz qtips/MEK. That got it much cleaner. I was worried about the crud between the contacts along with contacts.
Redid the osc alignment and it went well on bands 1-4. BC band is within 10kc and the sw bands are within abt 30kc which is quite exceptable.

Gonna take a break from this thing and watch one of the favorite Brit noir movies https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zBrdZZTbGg  Lots angling players here out for themselves. A few table sets but a little hard to make out. Lots of views of London from 1950.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
