Radio mostly dead
5/20/2008 10:50:00 PMMarvin Jackson
Hi everyone. I'm kind of new to this. I just bought a Philco 60 radio and replaced the capacitors and things. The radio picks up a few local stations, but not much else. They're really quiet. Any suggestions? I don't know what to do.

Thanks

What's your antenna like ?

Does you radio have a lot of audio gain ? Touch the top of the grid of the first audio, is the hum loud ? That's good.

Look at each stage and find a way to check the gain.
