thanks for that i think ive done it right now

looks like ive nailed it now as the marker board has the Variable resistors for each of the bands to adjust the capacitance voltage for the different crystals adjusted the one for the band in question and away we go no drop outs as of yet,

tweaked the radio in via the marker board, replaced quite a few capacitors including some split mylar capacitors, cleaned the switches and board connections, and seems to be ive got quite a nice radio hear now

what i would like to do is check the receive performance is ther any way to do this without a signal generator?
