RX works on USB and LSB

Absolutely no receive on AM. Needle does not move and no RX audio. What info can I provide?

Somebody was in it because the clarifier is open.

Side Note: VR13 does not affect SSB audio/power and is over modulated. AM audio is perfect on the scope. Q39 Limiter is in tact.
 

A friend of mine brought 959 that had no am receive all other functions worked fine.
I started with a receive alignment and when I got to L2 I noticed that when I pressed down hard on the slug receive started working. I replaced L2 and am receive was restored.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • @ Hambones amps:
    Does anyone know if you can replace the 2290 in a galaxy dx 93t twin turbine with a 2sc2879 red dot? If so, what would have to be tuned?
  • @ ShadowDelaware:
    Hambones the entire amp section would have to be retuned, and the rf transformers re wrapped.
