No manual tuning, only presets 40-180
#5

I figured this out last night. When I was restoring the chassis, I cleaned the tuning condenser in white vinegar and then baking soda and water. I used 0000 steel wool to clean off the rust after the vinegar bath. I could see a few metal burrs from the steel wool in the RF gang that was causing a short. They were very small. I was able to blow them out with a spray can. Back to normal now. This one took some time and I got aquanted with deoxit in the process while attempting to fix the issue bu cleaning the preset switch assy.

Thanks again for your input, Terry.
