I have now completed the re-cap which has improved the volume level but not as much as I was expecting for an 18V set of this type. Max volume gives a comfortable listening level on a strong station but it's certainly not loud.

Difficult to know if this is normal for this model or if there's something else wrong. Troubleshooting isn't easy as no voltages are given on the circuit diagram.

Sensitivity is good so the RF section appears to be healthy.
