The set concerned is a hacker sovereign RP18, transistors have all been replaced with af 125,the electrolytic caps have been replaced with modern caps,
the set was not working when bought,this was expected,usual AF117 -114 issues,
Mr Hennessy ,your email ended up in the spam folder,I do not know how to reply direct on this site,having replaced transistors and caps,switching on the set I realised that the set had possibly been "played with".The pointer is pointing in the approximately correct area,sound on FM is distorted , definitely out of alignment ,knowing that to indiscriminately twirling the IF cores can only lead to hopelessly throwing the alignment out,is why I asked if anyone in the Widnes, Warrington, Wigan,area could help, bringing the set or posting via Hermes etc.
again,many thanks to all.
