[Trouble Shoots and adjustments]

Trouble Cause Repair and adjustment
All of the function switchs didn't work. The contacts of the switchs were oxidized. Decomposed and polished contacts.
1st L.O frequency was a few MHz upper than required frequency. Decreasing capacitance of a trimmer capacitor at the 1st L.O. tunk circuit. Replace the trimmer capacitor.
Frequency range of the 1st L.O. was narrower than the required range. The inductance of OSC coil was lower than the proper value. Add 1/8 turn by each end of OSC coil. Adjust the frequency tracking between RF amplifier and 1st L.O.
No oscillation of the record calibrator. The contact of the oscillation level VR were oxidized. Adjust again the oscillation level to -6db of 75kHz modulation signal.
- - Adjust separation and pilot cancellation level.
- - Adjust SCA cancellation level..
