Have just started to look critically at my Capehart
R-390A. First thing I noticed was that the MC dial
does not go past 29MC! I hit a stop just before the
Veeder-Root comes to 29... weird. The gear train looks
OK, dial lock and zero adjust are free, and the unit
works OK and is approx on freq in all bands below
28... What am I missing? It's got to be mechanical.

Oh yes, checked all the tube pin resistances to
ground, and was surprised to find that all were within
20% of the Y2K manual... that has got to be a
first...... Electrically, it needs an alignment, but
that's for later.
