Hello Everyone,

I'm working on a really nice 48-472=122. I replaced all caps, tested resistors and tubes, aligned. The problem is, AM works fine. Fm, not so good. I can pick up my local stations fine except that they are very faint. Until I put a screwdriver to pin #8 of the 14F8. Then the volume goes up to a normal level. Any thoughts?
