Default Re: Bush DAC90A can't get tuning knob off

Dear all, many thanks for the advice. I got a kit of the main caps for this radio from Ebay, and have checked again and they are all correct as installed. See below. The radial capacitor had been replaced already so I didn't do that one, perhaps I should.
C17 I replaced with a 0.001 in the kit for a better tone response as you suggest RadioTirana, not that any tone is noticeable through the whistle and hum...

The resistor is to go across the dial bulbs which were missing. This was the main success- the tuning dial is now bright at least.

I don't have any valves to replace one by one (or anything else for that matter) so will try and restuff the smoothing cap. Just to show more ignorance, which one is that??

Best Regards Steve
