38-116 broken wire in sub-chassis
#12

Hi guy's,
Well I got lucky today and got a ww from a friend.
Put it in and the radio is playing and recieving on all bands again.
Now I want to try to figure out why it is not as strong as it should be on the audio side.
After it warms up a little it starts to get distorted and the sound quality diminishes a little.
I am thinking like a weak tube on the audio side.
What would you guy's look at if the tubes are ok?
I could go through the audio side and check resistors and caps again I suppose.
I did re-cap this thing and I replaced a handful of resistors.
Anyway, thanks for the help you guy's offer.
Invaluable service to hobbiests like myself.
