RCA Victor T-55 AM radio
#27

Terry, I only have 2 pages from Nostalgiaair. On one page it does show some voltages. but not many.. That's how I found I had missed a ground connection. Had 161 volts where I should have had 95 volts..

But after that fix radio did start to receive.. but not real great. picked up only the strong stations. maybe the loop antenna is either not hooked up right or is bad..???

I did find a very weak tube a 6SA7 Had one in a different radio and substituted it sounds better.. but not as I would expect?? Maybe its the best it can be?? Maybe these 5 tube radios are not that great to start out..

Did I miss some pages of the riders ?

Skip...
