Late yesterday afternoon, I reopened the case of this old receiver and went to work on round two of the tuner shower. After a few more applications, the switches stopped the crackling. Unfortunately, the tuning dial is still out of alignment, but oh well. I’m not going to crack the case again for that as the radio is thirty-nine years old, and I have two modern shortwave radio receivers anyway. But it does work fine otherwise! Big boys and their toys, right? 😂
They are fun to dink with.
Oh yeah, for those who have been radio nutters for years!
Glad you de-paper weighted it. (Is that a term? LOL)
I dunno but it sounds good!
You succeeded! Great and the radio looks nice, too.
Thank you! It has it’s own space in the room.
