Stewart-Warner A72T3
#14

It's been while since I worked on this radio.

I checked all the tubes again and they tested all ok. So I started checking all the circuits to make sure everything was correct when I noticed two plates were touching on the tuning condenser. After I straighten out the plates the FM works but only getting two stations. The two stations come in strong but only two.

I also noticed when I turn on the radio the bulb gets very bright then dims down. I measured the voltage at the bulb and its 2.9 V

Schematic is up in the very 1st post
