On with the saga. As you may recall, there seemed to be a short across the mag tuning switch. Certainly looked like good old item 97 switch could do it and with it installed as it was, it was always closed. Cool I thought so tonight down to work on it again. Took one wire off the switch and YES the switch was closed in any mode of the mag tuning switch or speed dial. Should only close on the speed dial mode. With a little effort and some neat tools I did some nudging on the switch which is like a reed switch, bending one slightly so they were not locked together at all times. Well, I'll be, it now stays open and only closes with the speed dial goes by it. Lovely. Unfortunately, there is still a short across those two leads. That was one, but somewhere there is another. I'm depressed but it is now time to start taking off some more wires.
One short removed, another one to find.
