Hi Frank,

Thanks for the reply. I did test the local oscilator and it seems to
be working fine. I could clearly hear a dead carrier at the frequency
range you mentioned.

No, I was never able to hear the FM. Also in AM mode I can't detect
any FM station at all. I'll keep on looking.

Thanks.

]Is there any reception on the low VHF band? If the expected signals come
in there, it would indicate your IF sections are OK. In that case the mixer
circuit would be a good suspect.

Do you have the schematic? I think there's one online at the Boatanchor
Manual Archive. There's also a couple of regular vendors on ebay who sell
nice quality reproduction manuals.

Do you have a signal generator? As Peter suggested, that's the next step.
