The inverter power was the culprit. With that resolved all I needed to do was an accurate alignment. The I.F. was simple but when it came to the R.F. I could not satisfy all five operations. Compensators 21A and 19A had very positive response but all the others had very little. The overall scale was compressed to where I could not satisfy both high and low frequency to match the index so went more for the middle. The overall performance is great except when it was on the same circuit as the bedroom dimmer switch. The only thing left to do is restore the cabinet when I retire and maybe find another one to work on.
