No FM signal on a Magnavox tube receiver
« on: 5 May 2008, 02:48 am »
I picked up an old Magnavox radio/record player, single-speaker console on which the FM doesn't seem to work. The AM works fine. I can't check the record player because the stylus is missing. It also has an input for TV sound, but I don't have the plug for that, so I can't check it. However, seeing that the AM works, I'm guessing the FM tuner has a problem. I don't know much about tuners, but if there are some basic troubleshooting tips or some pots or contacts that could cause this, I'd love to hear about them. The model# is 480P and the style# is C152-311. I'm a newbie, especially with tubes, so go easy on the tube-tech-talk, OK?
Thanks,
Mike
