uhf converters

[N9ZQA]

Adam -

I have the same converter and in addition to replacing the electrolytic capacitor in the power supply, I also found it necessary to clean the tube pins/socket as well as the brass fingers in the tuning section - contact cleaner and qtips work well.

After these repairs I was able to get several local stations using a loop antenna; I'm located about 25-30 miles from the station(s). Maybe these repairs will help.
