I suppose I could see if I can find another 2nd IF transformer and swap that but that will likely mean finding a junker set to pull it from....grumble grumble...
I guess I need to find a signal tracer and see if I can find where I'm losing signal.
Though I seldom use mine, when you have a problem like yours, it may be very helpful.
You should be able to find one for $25 or so.
