[R-390] R-390A RF Intermod?

[Philip B Atchley]

Hello all.
After running my recapped R-390A for a couple days I have noticed that it
has high IMD on the BCB band when tuned close to my two local stations,
1480 KYOS and 1580.  In other words I can also hear them when I tune to
KFBK 1530 and other stations in the same frequency area etc.  I don't
remember EVER having this problem with other R-390A's.  This is the same
set that "seems" to have somewhat lower gain in the IF section, though
that may be my imagination.  I'll know more when I get Don's radio done.

I have done a "preliminary" alignment on the receiver and usually follow
that up with a very thorough "nit picking" alignment a week or two after
I put them in service. The alignment seemed to go smoothly with no slugs
noticeably out of line with the other slugs in the same rack.
