42-761EZ Chassis Restoration
#47

Curiouser and curiouser... (edits in bold italics)

AM - Dead. Faint signal from generator heard at 1500 kc but trimmers have no effect.
SW 1 - Works fine. Aligned up fine.
SW 2 - Works from low end (7.3 mc) to just above 12 mc where the oscillator drops out. Working fine. Aligned up fine.
31M - Works from low end (9.3 mc) to about 9.5 9.8 mc where the oscillator drops out. 9.7 comes in around 9.5 on the dial. Any attempt to move the signal higher with the proper trimmer makes the oscillator quit, so I suspect a bad trimmer here.
25M - Dead.
19M - Dead. Will not respond to signal from signal generator but it is picking up a few stations very faintly.
16M - Dead.
13M - Seems to be working; picked up one very weak station around 21.7 mc. Aligned up fine on this band.

I'll have to study the schematic before proceeding.
