Well my initial thoughts were on step by step fault finding. I've got a bit of a collection to go through but I'm trying to get 3 sets up and working properly that are never going to trouble Sothebys so I was going to use them as starter/learning kits before I start on the others. A Bush TR90C portable transistor The one with the 208 waveband selector, ( No obvious visual faults but no no reception on either waveband or raise or lower volume on control switch, Full of hunts .04uF caps and AF117 transistors? are these prone to failure?) A Cossor CR1200U that picks up the strong local MW stations but with lots of hiss and crackle, nothing on LW. and a Pye P43U that a cat knocked off a shelf and broke the Bakelite casing into a dozen pieces that was working ok prior but since doesn't want to play. And by god that Bakelite doesn't want to go back together. So yes any tips on step by step fault finding would be most helpful if you cant point in the direction of the better vids or publications that would be most appreciated.
