Hello Bob. thank you very much for your reply and especially forgive my bad English. He speaks from Spain. I am very happy to know that no missing sheet !! hehe. more sheets could have improved reception? You radio has boats round or square tune? I think our manufacturing radios may be a little earlier, could be ?? Thank you

Welcome Moti,

> more sheets could have improved reception?

Not so much what it would do is lower the frequency that you are receiving. If you removed sheets (plates) it would raise the frequency some what.

The shape of the coil shields is not all that important what is is whether or not the coils inside are good?? It's common for them to be bad (open windings). Repair is not very difficult if you have some small gauge magnet wire.

Bob mentioned these links on another thread for the model 80.

If you haven't seen them, there are several modifications suggested by Ron and posted on Chuck's website that can help the performance of the 80.
