This receiver came to the shop with 1 very low band (B) Other bands were booming with response. I assumed that is was bad caps, however this one turned out to be much more involved. Sometime in its past, a fine coil wire had been damaged, killing the band in question. Lucky for me I was able to repair it using tweezers and a quality soldering station. You always hear the stories of lack of sensitivity or dead high frequency response of vintage receivers. Well, here is a simple way to determine if the failure is in the RF amplification section. Gotta keep these old boat anchors kicking! Hope this info is of value to you. What caused this wire to break? I'll never know for sure. TD
