Bummed out today. Haven't had the opportunity to crank the beast up due to life getting in the way. So I did so this morning after getting the final chassis cleaning done and blowing out debris last night. Grabbed one of the knobs, slipped it on the power shaft, and turned it..."click". Dial indicator light lit up, but no hum through the speaker. Noticed that there was a bit of a "pop" sound coming from the speaker when switching the radio from AM to SW, but NOTHING else. I really don't have much more time for working on this thing. Probably got in over my head. Gonna go cut some grass, drink some coffee and ponder what the issue may be.
You can call me Jerry if you don't want to use my handle. I get it. Makes some folks nervous.
I have a finely tuned horse puckey detector. Don't blame me if it goes off.
