Mitchell 1264 Issues
#8

OK, here is what I have done and gotten:
Turned on radio, very little noise at all, no stations picked up. I just got a Heathkit SG-8, and having no lead for it yet, just decided to turn it on, set it to 450KC and see if my radio would pick it up. It picked up a squeal with the gang closed. I used a plastic driver and turned the IF coil until it got really loud. I then shorted the antenna and squeal went away. tried to tune upwards with the generator, following it with the radio. Didn't work out that well at all. pretty much nothing. Closed the gang, set the SG8 to 450 again, and started to open gang. At about 1000KC (radio knob indicated) I could barely hear the sqeal again, had to really get down by the speaker to hear it. heard it again growing ever fainter on approx 1400 and all the way open. During this whole time I never got one single station. only the squeal of the generator. I am waiting on test lead for it to come in the mail. I tried to adjuast trimmer but didn't really have much background noise change at all.

Also would like to thank you guys for replying, and for your patients and help.

Tim
