Hey Matt,
Glad to help out and get your set back in the pink. Enjoyed chatting with you.
> But I still have the motor boating problem.
You can try adj #26 just a little and see if it calms it down. Add more capacitance to #20 and or add a cap at the bottom of the second IF transformer at the B+ connection, .05 or .1mfd @ 630v is fine. Keep leads as short as necessary to make connections. Also have a look at that 2meg resistor to be sure it's close to 2 megs ( it's part of the avc circuit).

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
