Next bunch of caps done. I've done a complete realignment of the FM section and now it performs very well. Output from the discriminator is perfectly symmetrical, and it sounds great. A few more caps in the RF sections to replace and it should be as good as new.

   

There is one irritating issue with the FM though. I can get it to track over about half of the band, but it tracks high on the lower part of the band, and low on the high part of the band. If it wasn't for the fact that the other two bands track perfectly, I would suspect that the dial string was strung wrong. Any ideas?

Dan Double conversion is using two IF converters instead of one. This improves the image response. morzh — 07:15 PM
