Zenith H724Z2
#1

Hi Guys,

I have an interesting problem that is driving me crazy. On this AM/FM radio I have replaced all caps, tested the resistors, tested the tubes and replaced 2. I aligned it, both AM and FM with a VTVM and everything checked ok. The problem is that AM works great, but FM will not pick up any stations. Only dead air anywhere on the dial. Is there anything that anyone can think of? Any help will be appreciated.
