37-650 Current Symptoms
#12

Regarding the BC RF coil #9- the #1&2 leads should ohm out at 130, and are 131, so I feel they are fine. HOWEVER, the ones I replaced the leads on, 3&4, should be 5.0 and they ohm out at 14.0

Sounds a little high- I think I will replace the new leads with some from another coil, closer to the original thickness, and see if I get a drop in resistance, get it closer to what it should be...

Could this resistance be my problem??? Now I will have to go check the other BC coils in the subchassis for similar defects, though I only remember the one set of leads being replaced.

Now, I do l know I seem to have no change whatsoever when I adjust the Var. Cond. on the RF board(number 10) so I am thinking it might be in this section...

PS- When I checked the 38-3 specs, they have completely different numbers.

Old Cars, Old Radios, Old Pipes and Young Women... What more is there?
