| Made in 1973 this radio worked well on VHF but not at all on Long, Medium or either of its two Short-wave bands. Realignment restored opertion on Long and Medium but the problem on Short Waves was only found after I noticed the top of the push switches these was higher than the others when operated. After removing the bank of switches I found it to be damaged allowing the contacts to move beyond their operting position. After bending and reassembly the switches worked properly. I don't suppose anyone will ever hear the restored results on Short Waves! ......My ex-neighbour who recently, on my advice, bought a Shortwave receiver to get the BBC from his new home in Portugal had never heard short wave broadcasts before and he must be pushing 80! |
