1948 Westinghouse Model 1821 (182) audio problems
#17

Hey Ron, that wasn't me that used those codes, that was the person I was quoting.

I knew a Frank Ramirez who was the Pastor at Elkhart Valley Church of the Brethren, in Elkhart, Indiana from 1990-2003 and he looks just like you (from what I can see of you in your profile picture) are you related by any chance?

And OK, I didn't know that the person you were referring to was a person who lived in recent history and not the 19th Century Hymn Writer.

And I'm trying to be nice, I was just mentioning that I have a few radios that I have found that are still working with their original electrolytic cans in the radio's circuit yet.

Do you have any ideas as to why this radio might be having issues with not wanting to receive signals?

Thanks.
