Magnavox 155B Assistance
11/18/2011 4:17:29 PMKen
I have a Magnavox 155B and cannot get any of the bands to pickup a radio station. All tubes tested fine, all lights come on, phonograph works (just runs a little slow). Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Usually all paper and electrolytic capacitors need to be replaced, and the controls and switches nedd to be cleaned with the correct type of cleaner (I use Deoxit). The turntable probably has a bad idler wheel; it may need to be rebuilt, which is not cheap. The cartridge might need rebuilding also.
