well at last this set is sort of done.
i have good reception of fm i did have to change an other bumble bee cap on the fm tuner head.
am works quite well not shure if agc is working properly.
basick check on am alighnment showes its ok
i had to re replace c 49 i had put in 47mf now changed to 22mf louder now.
what have i learned from this repair.
1.dont go back to some thing after years you forget what you did and why.
2. dont trust bumble bee caps ,as bad as waxies and hunts.
3.try and keep away from sets with complex dual wave change swiches.
4it does not matter how many spare knobs you have ,you will never have the one you want.
5.dont guess conponent values look at the circuit and under stand the component you are changing.
6 double check all the work you have done .
