RP-3 no range
#1

I just finished replacing caps,installing the rebuilt cartrige in my RP-3. Just to find out it has to sit no more then 2 feet from a radio to work. I tested the tubes (they're good), checked resistor resistance(w/in specs), played with the tuning adjustment and doubled checked connections and antenna. From what I read the range should be up to 25 feet or was this a marketing ploy. Any ideas! Thanks, Richard
