hi Ref
Yes tin whiskers are a possibility but would that account for a 10.7mhz AM signal passing through better than an FM one, or is that normal.
Some of these transistors are impossible to get at and I am resisting the temptation to dismantle the whole board assembly and tuning cord to get at them.
The Regentone TR419 is not working on FM either, or at least it can just pickup one station very quietly. I am sure it was working OK when I put it on the shelf about a year ago.
What frequency range would I be expected to pickup on a SW radio if the FM oscillator is working.
thanks
Mike
