The shadow meter in the radio is responding to tuned signals but it never goes to a very small shadow even on strong signals. Best I can get is about a 3/8 of an inch. Is that about right or should it get narrower? The 1k resistor (#14) has been replaced. Would altering the value of #14 make any difference if so higher or lower?
Also I can't get he lower end of the dial completely lined up. Off about 10kc. The low frequency compensator (#23) is turned out to where it is no longer making a difference. There is a 410pf mica (#24) across the compensator. Could that be a problem and maybe replace it with a different value. The dial is reading higher than the 10kc higher than it should. The high side is spot on.
Thanks,
Dan
