Help - Can anybody steer me in the right direction? I've repaired many of my old radios but I have five of them that sound like there under water ( Gurgled sound). New E caps of the proper mfd. new paper Caps, clean vari condensers. Tried other speakers, cleaned volume controls, swapped tubes,checked resistors and wiring. An Emerson db 301, Admiral, Motorola,Zenith, GE all are doing the same thing. Plenty of Vol., Picks up stationsthough out the dail. Some sound that way all the time, others after playing for about 15 min. Any ideas? Thanks Don
