Dear Radiophiles,
Can anyone help me to find the trouble I am having with my Ultra U434.It does not oscilate in any of the the bands on the half lower frequency,when the tunning capacitor is half rotated.The oscilator grid current apears at half rotation of tunning,R2,C10,R3,R4,C22 seem OK,Continuity and resistances of coils according to manufacturer´s specifications.Could it be that the use of a UCH 42 instead of a 10C1 should be the cause for this fault?And beeing so,what could be done to overcome this problem using the UCH42 once the 10C1 is not available here? Sugestions wellcome with thanks,A.B.Regada
