- Does the fact that this set has double conversion make it more sensitive or selective ? It seems to be no better than my S-40B ?
2.The volume and sensitivity controls must be at almost set to maximum to receive anything on 80 meters or higher. Is this normal ? Any suggestions on what to check ?
3.Will this set be more sensitive on a di-pole antenna ? I only have a vertical connected to the co-ax connection .
4.The selectivity controls has two capacitors about 1.25" long and3/8" thick with red, red, orange, white, blue bands. What is value ?
I have replaced all caps, bad resisters and none of the tubes have shorts. The alignments seems fairly decent on all bands, but I have not attempted to adjust. (Don't trust myself to do this...).
Any and all help is appreciated.
Thanks, John
