[Lowfer] Repaired my Sangean ATS-803A

[Andy - KU4XR]

After replacing transistors, and checking diodes, all to no avail,
I continued probing around on the circuit board and found the
problem. An extremely small torroid transformer wound with finite
wire had broken loose from the board. It was non-repairable, but I
was able to piece together some fixed inductors and kept it out of
the dump. To my surprise, I was copying a Canadian NDB with the
receiver setting near my lowfer loading coil. " SB " on 362 KHz.
I've tried to perk it up a little to use it as a remote receiver
on LF. Seems to be working decently for what it is.
