advice needed: restoring 47-1230 - FM & AM now works!!!! :D (uncertain about SW)
#25

it was when I was changing the capacitor that I realised the mistake; but what trigerred me into thinking the drawing - the vintage riders drawing - was wrong, is that both legs of the capacitor are connected to the 2 GND pins of that lug strip.

That's the second "mistake" I see on the riders drawings, and I haven't been using it for long... I am quite happy to have the schematics to compare to.

I have a picture of that capacitor's legs in my camera, taken prior to removing it, for reference.

Those are details better left to the ones who know. Maybe you disconnected the wrong end of the wire.RodB — 06:22 PM
