Hi all,
Thanks for the info so far, I’ve joined the Marconi group, with perseverance the top two bands are working now, most of the valvebases in the rf stage had a brown goo on them, cleaned this off which helped a lot, then looked at the underside of the rf chassis, sticky brown goo around the valve pins of the vhf frequency stages which appears to be resin flux.

I will report further on it as I progress.

Regards
Amanda M0DZO
