RE: Having tuner problems in receiver
Posted by Eli Duttman on January 8, 2017 at 16:36:49:
You need a professional alignment, for both FM and AM. You might as well replace the tuner tubes, before alignment. If aligned with the old tubes, another alignment will be needed, when tube replacement is essential.
It's cheap in that the same tubes are used for both FM and AM IF duty. OTOH, the filter choke in the voltage doubler B+ supply is a nice touch.
Appropriate speakers will also help. 5 WPC is about right from SE 6BQ5 "finals".
