Hi from a newby and Bush TR82C Distorted at high signal strength

[boater sam]

Hi. Thanks for that.  Yes I saw a video of that being done and think I might follow suit.  still confused at C10's (AGC Cap) value in the set
as it's 8 Microfarad @ 10v and the circuit says 4 at 12v.  I don't know if there was a service Bulletin with an update.

  The Mk 1 sets with OC44,45 transistors use 4uf AGC capacitors.
The  Mk 2 sets using AF117 transistors use 8uf,  according to the Bush manufacturers service sheets.

Bear in mind that makers were prone to using whatever they could buy at the right price, small alterations make little difference to set performance.  The tolerance on electrolytic capacitors can be +100% to -50%.

Voltage rating only needs to be slightly higher than the 9V battery voltage so 12v to 25v is fine. Even 10v should be sufficient though that is getting a bit close for reliability.
