47-1230 Capacitors
#32

Hi Marsupial, Yes, I recieve both AM and
FM pretty well...AM might be a little louder than FM though. there is one cap in the FM section I didnt replace yet, the 3 legged one I understand is for filtering. It measures correctly but I know I should still replace it. I get no chirps or distortion, I can hear a little bit of hum in the background but seems to depend on which station it is tuning in on. The lower volume stations seem to have a little more hum in the backgroiund.. might be just not getting the station very well.

Yes, I changed the line capacitors. I will run through the manual checklist to check everything then.

One more question, my vtvm isnt working right now. Do you know if an alignment will work as well useing a scope instead of the vtvm? Thanks for your help. Warren
