I completed the insulation on the cabinet interior (Al foil and hi temp silicone rubber), and reglued the speaker gasket.

FM front end alignment completed, chassis bottom cover back in place, tidied up the flying lead that is used to couple the line cord to the FM antenna I had everything back in the case.

Time for a test - all sounding great on FM, dial alignment is pretty good, ditto on AM. And then the trouble started.. loud crackles and crashes again on AM. Almost certainly SMD again So I shall be going in to clean the micas in the remaining AM cans. Not unexpected, I suppose but not something I really wanted to be getting into at this stage.

I don't hold with furniture that talks.
