,,,Further testing showed that the audio problem is actually an AGC problem. Turned the RF gain control down and suddenly the audio was clear and had plenty of volume, and the "S" meter responded to tuning....,,
I repaired one of these with this problem years ago.  This radio is Infamous for AGC voltage leakage through the phenolic, I think in the band switch area. Several people here are familiar with this problem it's kind of hazy In My Memory. But I think the way that I fixed it was to just pull AVC voltage off of the stage where the leakage was occurring.  Someone here gave me tips about it. Anybody?
