RE: How to improve a lousy receiver?

Spray all pots and switches with Caig D-100. Use silver grease on the fuse or Caig. Put a big, fat 10AWG powercord on it with a better plug like the popular, inexpensive P&S. If appropriate I would suggest the Elna Silmic ll capacitors where appropriate. Dampen the chassis and at least the large caps with Mortite rope caulk. Set it on a tripod of brass cap nuts. Change input resistors to something good. It seemed pretty clear what you were asking to me. Your new caps along with a power cord will make a big difference. T456
