after recapping and cleaning the band selector/presets i could only get one faint station at night. after adjusting trimmers i can get a good amount of stations but none above 800 on the dial. does this sound like an alignment issue?

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
