I am working on a Wards Airline 62-418. The radio has been recapped and it plays fine. The problem is that the tuning eye does not open or close. It lights up about 3/4 of the way around and stays in that position no matter how strong the signal is. I have traced the schematic, following the control grid, plate, target and cathode. I found that R20 was open and replaced it, but it didn't help. Someone has previously been inside this set and they had replaced R22 with an 8M ohm resistor. I also corrected that by installing a 22M ohm (according to schematic).
Here is a link to the schematic - http://www.nostalgiaair.org/PagesByModel...011523.pdf
Any ideas would be appreciated! Thanks.
