The buffer is in and working but I now need to add a volume control to the decoder as the signal is too high! I also replaced a few other parts that had been snipped & tacked by a previous owner presumably during fault diagnosis, and changed the IF filter capacitor from 40pF to 18pF.

I have been using a valve amplifier but I need to wire it to a solid state setup so I can listen on headphones only. I will then have yet another play with the IF bandwidth to see whether I can get away with a tighter setup.
