I tried the tap tap today again starting at TR1 and it burst into life, albeit hissy. I can receive MW and LW stations with volume control and tone control.
Off station the hiss is quite loud and diminishes when on some stronger stations but always there.
Something I discovered today to my detriment is that WD40 contact cleaner melts the plastic, I still has the volume, tone and band knobs still on when I gave the chassis a good dowsing so they're looking pretty shabby now, bugger!
Anyway, progress has been made just need to sort the hiss, any ideas?
Thanks for the advice so far.
