Ok,
My radio is 100% complete with the mech. The coin mech is its own switch where by putting in the quarter closes the switch giving power to the chassis. There is also a on/off volume pot on the chassis. I grounded all the negatives to the can since that is what was done originally and with these Tradios there was no antenna. There is a short wire with a washer on the other end that gets screwed right to the metal cabinet. All of the others I have worked on have this also.
I am thinking that maybe something is touching somewhere under the chassis. I just cant understand why this radio had good reception being attached to the cabinet before I re-capped it but now it doesnt???
Hmmmmmmmmmmm
It'll be good to see you too Terry
