Thanks for the reply.
No there isn’t. The video amp transistor does get a little hot, I’ve put a new one in its place with a heat sink, just in case.
I’m hoping since I’m getting weak audio, this is just a faulty transistor. What’s a good modern replacement I could use to replace the IF transistors with? I assume problem is with these as I’m getting very weak audio and no video, yet i know the video amp transistor is working fine.
I’ve touched up the solder joints and there’s good ground connections all around.
