Oh morzh, I kind of figured that's what you meant. Why keep yanking without putting the first one back in. Wouldn't tell us anything. So I went off and proceeded as I thought you meant and guess what. You got me going in the right direction. I was headed east instead of west. Everyone, including myself was concentrating on the audio circuit. Nothing wrong in the audio circuit it was towards the front end.

The wire I found missing from #11 1st IF compensator? I found it. It was at the correct pin on the 1st IF transformer but the other end was connected to #39 compensating condenser with the 51K and 700pfd cap on it in the oscillator circuit. Made the correction and the darn thing sings like a bird.

I can only say thank you very much! Your help is very appreciated. Guess we can put this one to bed.

Thanks,
Pepper
