Philco Jr (believe to be an 80 or 81) Issue
#1

Finally replaced all caps, resistors, and the 80 and one 36 tube and fired her up. Did get a lot of squealing between stations, but with an antenna can get stations. Use the Sensitivity adjustment on back and station comes in clear. When I go to select other stations, get squealing inbetween and once on station if adjust sensitivity get clear station. Once set is warm I can go to a couple of stations, squealing inbetween but they come in (audio output not the loudest - I'll have to try again at night). I then turned off the radio with current setting let it sit for a while and turn on and I have to go through same routine. Frustrated and wondering where else I should look? Is this radio that bad a receiver that needs this much adjustment?
