Production changes: 16B
#3

When I look at the parts placement sheet, I don't find either of them in the radio. The obvious one connects to the ground at the HF trimmer just next to the second wafer from the front of the bandswitch, and to that section of the bandswitch.

I guess I'll have to pull the shadow meter apart and see what is up with that... not something I was looking forward to.

For the record, this is a darn nice performer, even with the issues it still has.

Work performed so far:

Replace 2x 8uf filters with 2x 10uf/500V
Repack filter can
Repack bakelite caps
Replace resistors as needed (up to a point, still working my way through).
Apply DeOxit to all ground connections on the tuner rotors (still trying to figure this one out... but the rear end of the rotor shaft had no ground contact, while the front did. One would think that if it connected in one place, it would show some continuity all the way..)
