Hi and welcome,
Looks like #19 is the oscillator adjustment for the low end the bcb. Let me ask you is #19 's adjustment screw, is it pretty much all the way in or out?
When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
