Default Re: Cossor 494AC. My first proper restoration

Thanks to all for your replies, and thanks to Kalee20 for your kind offer but I won't be needing it now. I got it working and despite a worn out 7C5 it seems pretty good. I think it was dirty valve pins that were the problem. I cleaned the pins on all the valves - they were black and needed scraping. After that it worked, a tweak of the oscillator caps brought in plenty of stations on all bands. I'll do a proper alignment later and fit a good 7C5 when I get one.
