Thanks for responding Ron.... I have 300v at the plate of the 6k7 located by the 5y3 and 6v6 tube. The 6k7 on the other side of the chassis has 300v at the plate when the band selector switch is moved to either of the short wave
bands. I have voltage going to the rf coil, the antenna coil only seems to have heater voltage going to it or I should say the broadcast band of the selector only has heater voltage for the dial lamps. (I don't mind telling you I'm still not the greatest reading schematics so some things slip by me) Pin 4 of the 6k7's in turn
have 150v instead of 105v. I did a simple continuity check on the rf coil and every lug had a partner. Ran out of time and did not do the antenna coil. Is that the only test I can do? I did not see where the antenna coil would have any other voltage going to it unless I'm missing something in the selector switch itself. (Both trimmer coils (screws #1,2,3,4,) are good cleaned and working)
Thanks for the advice on the antenna lug.....I had it where the schematic showed and picked up nothing. I removed it from that 6k7 plate terminal on the band selector and have it on the middle rod going from the selector center gang to the center band switch for now (must be 1st shortwave?) Guess that could be 1st indication of an antenna coil issue?
