Zenith 12H090
#40

Thanks!

I remember your tuning problems - and checked this chassis at the time you posted Icon_smile . On my chassis the follower is workig well.

Lots of adjustments yesterday, and it is working much better. I still have to complete the tracking and antenna trim for FM. Alas, also, I had a frozen "slug" in the discriminator transformer which cracked on me. Although I could make adjustments, and have things much better, I found a scrapper chassis online which will provide the appropriate donations.

Even with a small test speaker sat on the bench, this radio seems to have nice sound, no hum and good clarity.

I don't hold with furniture that talks.
