37-60 alignment problem
#8
Smile 

Thanks to Terry, Mike and Russ        After removing the oscillator trimmer i found the screw had indeed backed its way almost all the way out and there was no pressure on the mica wafer.  So I cleaned the mica while I was in there and reset the screw and started aligning again at the beginning.  All went well this time and it's playing well out in the garage.  Not so well in the house.  Way too much RFI.  Can't get rid of it.  My bench presently is right next to my Geothermal heater and that thing puts out a lot of RFI.  So I put in a bluetooth mod and right now it's playing off my phone " Stairway to Heaven ". I did have to swap out a 6A8 tube. The radio seemed to lose signal strength after about 30 min. of playing.  So I tried a NOS 6A8 and 6K7 and it seems to keep the signal strength.  Now to attempt to make the front of that cabinet look original with all the faux finish gone.  Should be fun.

  Thanks again
