Having managed to get the basic tube tester working, it is now time to add more features to it to make it truly useful. Leakage testing, gassy tube detection, higher resolution current measurement, and other small add-ons were obviously required. The one function that I really find useful is the tube selection method. Rather than using the common 'one switch per pin' method for re-directing the signals to the respective tube pins, I decided to try a 'plug and socket' system, which I am really happy with. Hope you agree. Enjoy the video.

That's what I want to go into in this video. The preamp, as simple as it is, is surrounded by a really complex tone shaping network that is a work of art, both in its complexity, and ultimate result.

The FM alignment is not complete without checking the RF alignment of the radio. I was fairly confident that it was accurate, but as usual I wanted to extend the FM range to receive one of my favourite stations at 101.6MHz. This radio only goes up to 100MHz, as was normal in its day, so a little trickery is needed. The auto tuning also has alignment requirements for FM, so those are covered as well.

I aways get to the end of a restoration project with mixed feelings: satisfaction for the job done, but mingled with some regret that the process is actually over. However, that is the goal - getting these fantastic radios back into full working order and into daily use. This video completes the various outstanding tasks of this restoration, like the RF alignment of the SW3-10 bands, cosmetic repair, and finally, the testing. I also added a short clip of SSB decoding with my external BFO, a project that was inspired by the Grundig Satellit 2100 that I restored previously. It works really, really well. Enjoy the video.
