Which tuner to get and getting the most from it. Thank God, for the radio!

Resistor replacement in RF article














Here's the pertinent portion of the article, mainly the second and third paragraphs, which pertain to replacing resistors in radio frequency circuits.

I included the cover and author to show that both the article and magazine were geared toward guys who made a living repairing VCRs, CB radios, etc, not toward magic crystal tweakers.

After reading this article in 1996, I've always substituted like for like in tuners. If it had a carbon, I replace it with a carbon. If it had a carbon film, I replace it with a carbon film. I don't know enough about RF circuits to know when it would be acceptable to deviate from this path.
