Which resistor? - 40-190
#1

While I am waiting for my replacement caps and resistors to arrive from JustRadios, I have been exploring the chassis of my 40-190 to make sure I understand which part I see corresponds to the part in the Parts List and in the schematic. Here is one that confuses me: it is a 1 meg resistor located between the volume control and the band control (see attached photos). It seems to be connected to a mica capacitor (#6)? The drawing with "Replacement Parts" does not show a resistor with that resistance in that location; the identified 1 meg resistors (#9 and #48) are not near that location. On the other hand, the schematic seems to show a 1 meg resistor (#9) attached to mica capacitor #6. So - which resistor is it? - My apologies if this is an obvious thing. Thanks - Roy

I believe you are looking at capacitor 6 and resistor 9, which are in the bias/agc circuit.

Thanks Brenda, that's what I thought. The Parts Diagrams shows that resistor and capacitor down near tube 1232, on the right side of the chassis.

Those are details better left to the ones who know. Maybe you disconnected the wrong end of the wire.RodB — 06:22 PM
