38-12 quirk, alignment?
#1

Recently recapped a 38-12, rewound a winding on the oscillator transformer and replaced the antenna transformer with a universal type. The set plays pretty well now but I noticed a odd thing with it. There are fairly strong local stations on 910 and 950. Between 910 and 950 there is just 'air noise' as to be expected. However, when tuning into 950, I can faintly hear the station at 910 as well up until the point that 950 is tuned 'dead on'. Does this sound like something potentially with alignment (IF being to 'wide')? Thanks in advance.
