Thanks to all for the advice, esp. Otto. I have 2 questions, if I may.
#1) Is the FX706A/06 the same as a BX716X ? Both have the same tube line up (minus the phonograph EBC41 pick-up). and are there any online schematics for either?
#2) I have used a signal tracer and am now back as far as the EBF80. The signal was distorted at the grid of the EBC41's, so I knew it was back from that. At one diode on pin 7 of the detector (EBF80) it sounds great. But at pin 8, which goes to the IF transformer, it sounds terrible. If I short pin's 7 to 8 it improves the sound tremendously, but I can still hear audio distortion. Any suggestions?
Thanks so much for your time.
