Should I align my 46-420 after a recap?
#7

First, I want to thank everyone for the help. It's great to have a place to get some expert advice. You are bringing many radios back to life!

I aligned the radios and they seem to work well. When I place my hand on one of the radios near the antenna, the volume increases significantly. The other one is not affected as much. the one that is sensitive is the one that I installed the new loop antenna. I double checked the number of loops, they are the same. I did use a slightly larger gauge magnet wire. The volume is sufficient but not as loud as the radio with the original antenna. I should probably leave it alone but now it bugs me. Is there a way to tune the new antenna?

Jim
