Default Re: Bush AC34, no sound.

Hi Lads,
checked the vanes, removed the small bearing at the rear,there was a little dirt, cleaned and replaced it adjusted the shaft so there is no play.
On SW there is reception through the full cycle of the vanes, on MW reception through about 1/2 the cycle of the vanes, on LW nothing.
There is still the problem with not holding station, and with a gentle tap on the chassis station returns but not always.....sometimes it takes going through the tuning cycle to find it again.
Is the capacitor knackered??
thanks
Bill
