AR88D - R10 resistor blows in the RF stage
 

Hi,

I hope somebody could help me.

Recently acquired RCA AR88D. Resistor R10 (1000 ohms) in the RF stage has blown. Replaced with new resistor and that also fried. Where should I be looking?

Many thanks in advance,
Tim

Check C-63, to see if its shorted.

Hi Richard,

Finally had the time today to check C-63 and yes, it had shorted. It was replaced and the AR88D burst back into life. Many thanks for helping me out - it's really appreciated!

All the best,
Tim

Glad I could help. These are great receivers despite
their age.
