Well I've rewound the OT and it works fine. Began the alignment and all was going fine until the last SW tuning range 2 (2.3-7.4 mc). The first part of this stage you peak at 7 mc by adjusting the oscillator (30B)(no problem) and then you are to go to 2.35mc (closing the tuning cap plates) and peak there (30C) where I don't hear the sig gen signal.

If I set the sig gen to 6 mc the radio dial has to be set to about 6.65 mc to hear the tone (this is after peaking at 7 mc). To me it seems like it is short on capacitance. I note that across 30C (the 2.5 mc osc trim) there is what appears to be a large mica. According to the schematic this is 30x and is a 1150 uufd (I didn't change this one). The parts list does not say it is mica whereas it does state other small ones as mica. I am wondering if this cap might not be mica and could be causing my problem? Looking to you experts for help and suggestions.
