Default Re: Philips P3G38T Stone Dead

Well after spending a ton of time on this radio it's working again, Repaired the band switch. But still nothing on LW. And repaired quite a lot of broken wires. Problem is when the radio is out of the chassis the front panel which houses the controls and the ferrite rod hangs off the main PCB. Hence the broken connections, I replaced the mixer/osc with a ASY27. But the radio is still a bit deaf, Probably due to the ASY27 Having a gain of around 30 and the original AF117 stated as being no lower than 50 hfe.

Wasn't easy to change as it was buried under a lot of wiring, I'll pop something else in with more gain when I get a chance.
