A Model 16X story
#42

Last evening, I got under the chassis and straightened out the wiring issues at the filter block cap. Things now match the wiring diagram on my service sheet, and trace correctly to their respective parts of the circuit.

I'm not sure this explains why signal was not making it through the 77 pentode before the power stage, but will check voltages etc. in the next work session. Wiring from the volume control, power and grid connections look to be correct, but check and recheck always helps.

I'd hit a bit of a nervous dither a couple of weeks ago, but enthusiasm for this radio is really picking up again Icon_smile

I don't hold with furniture that talks.
