Default Re: Another 19 set rebuild

Well I got the RX going to some extent. I replaced about 9x 0.1uf (500v) caps and that 1500v 0.1 also which was smoking.. The joy of wax.

Only thing is bfo is very weak and disappears after some time. Also the avc level never goes above 50% on the meter although plenty of deflection when on a carrier. The front end seems very good esp 4-8mhz range.

Can anyone suggest how to improve bfo and maby there is something obvious I need to replace.. As this is my first ws19, I'm all ears for advice.
I added a short video clip in my folder above for anyone.
