Hi everyone,

I have on the bench at the moment a  6 volt Motorola valve car radio Model 605. The valve line up is 6SK7 6SA7 6SK7 6SQ7 6V6 6X5. After some recapping it now goes. I have the schematic only at this stage . However the workings of the permeability tuner and the pushbuttons remain a mystery to me. It works presently on manual tuning, selected by pressing the "M" button on the tuning head.But if anyone is familiar with this set and knows how the buttons are supposed to work and what happens in the set when a non "M"button is pushed could they let me know?Thanks and cheers,
