Hi again,I. discovered that the o.p.transformer was o.c on the primary. I replaced it with a good one from a P 74.. On switch on I am getting a shrill blast on the speaker. I have stations coming in when the shrill blast abates a little as I turn up the volume. This volume control may not have been worked for some years. Anything else I should check. All help would be appreciated. Thanks again Dick
