Help on 48-482 FM
#10

Thanks again Terry. Today I took the cover off the FM detector can and fired it up. With the cover off it did change the frequency slightly. I put a 20pf cap across the trimmer and voila, shifted the frequency of the oscillator from 10.6 to 8.5 pf. Looks like I need to post to see if I can find a replacement used xformer (philco pn 32-4004) or maybe a defective one with a good trimmer. Unfortunately the schematic does not give a value for trimmer. At least I feel I am making progress. Still amazes me that the set receives FM fairly well. Thanks for your help.
