Allen, the 37-650 is languising on the repair bench. I haven't got back to it since I completely replaced all resistors and caps. She runs and hums a bit but no reception. All voltages check out. I know the problem is on the RF sub-chassis and have been delaying going back in there. If the switch is capable of handling 120 DC it will handle 120 AC. DC harder on the switches as it tends to arc when making contact, more so than AC. PL

Absolutely no one is going to reverse engineer that circuit. Even the iron core is missing.RodB — 10:37 AM
