hi guys,
i am restoring an hq180a. been a while since i messed with tubes,
(abt 20 yrs) am in need of a little direction. i checked & replaced
bad tubes, verified b+ v. 2 problems, may be related??? on top band,
very poor reception, & when u adj ant. control, u hit a spot that
causes oscellation or motorboating. prob #2...on top 2 bands, cw sigs
have a raspy note. not t9 at all. it is a high s/n rcvr 6377. kind
of neat, has spinner knobs, noise blanker, & 455 kc if brought out to
rear apron. i guess previous owner did mod, but it sure looks
factory....solder connections, etc.
would appreciate any and all guesses.
tnx, pete, k2iqk

Regarding front panels... Dee W4PNT (Patty and Dee's Marine) does the
180A panel. He's the guy who also does Valiants and Rangers.
