37-650 console
#5

Hello I got the radio working some what. I can pick up a few local stations and a lot of short wave. I found (through researching pages of posts written on these forums pertaining too the 37-650) that one of the band switch jumper wires was slightly grounded to the mounting post of the band switch. Had to pull out the antenna section too find and fix it. Put everything back together and it came too life. But now I believe I have another ground in the broadcast section ( which I already had pulled out too rebuild it had a short that was sparking) when I put my finger on the 6K7 RF tube the radio gets louder and picks up more stations. I am currently reading 2 meg ohms on the broadcast band coil secondary to chassis and it also is reading into the antenna stage secondary. I will desolder the coil wires and try too trace out where the ground is coming from. Thanks for the help and any suggestions. paul
