[ARC Tech-109]

So an update on the progress; the set is working as well as I can remember but it was a battle. Numerous bad resistors and a wrong tube in the video amp socket, once I got that squared away and the video IF aligned everything came to life. A few nagging issues remain one of which is the IF AGC seems to be hunting and it needs a purity & convergence alignment. The FM tuner works well but is having a hard time keeping up with some of the IBOC and other digital crap of our modern stations, the AFC wants hunt and the sound itself has this subtle midrange "twang-y" edge to it on the local iHeart stations, I don't hear it on the NPR or college stations.

Here are some of the images I promised, you can click on them at your leisure.
