Farnsworth BT20 - Antique Radio Forums
2025年2月14日 · I had 53 volts on pin6 of the 12sq7. It should be 30 volts. The resistor R9 was 470k. I increased this to a 3.3 Meg. That brought the plate voltage to 30 volts. My problem is that the grid voltage on the 12sk7 and the 12sq7 are off. 12sk7 pin 4 should be zero volts. It reads -.43 volts. The 12sq7 pin 2 should be -.2 volts and it reads -.6 volts.
BC-455A question - Antique Radio Forums
2024年12月18日 · While looking for my 12SR7, I found a 12SQ7 and tried it. Solved that issue.

Since I had an extra unused tube socket I put the bad 12SQ7 there and just used one of the diodes.

BFO model S-41G hallicrafters - Antique Radio Forums
2025年1月12日 · That is a dual pole single throw switch, the AGC line should be grounded and plate voltage should be applied to the BFO tube when the switch is in the code position. So if the 12SQ7 plate voltage position is wrong, check the AGC section since it should also be reversed. Has the switch been replaced? Rodger WQ9E
56x3 very low volume - Antique Radio Forums
2025年2月16日 · Double check the values of the two replaced resistors (3.3meg, 470K), the one's Sams calls number 28 and 24. Since you are at least getting a station, but have no hum when you touch the middle volume control terminal (make sure shaft is tuned to center) the issue seems to be between the volume control and the output tube (since you hear a hu
