Panasonic RE 784A
#2

Well the long answer is this. If it was the tuning cap it's broken down into two parts one AM and the other FM.

The 11 plates at the front of each section are for the AM tuning and the 2 plates at the rear are for the FM tuning. So it is physically the same cap it's two different sections.
I would suspect that the problem isn't the tuning cap. Were you having this problem the last few days? Could be just noise from weather conditions? Lightening and such.

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.

Now I think I've got!
