    1952 Schwarzwald WII AM/FM

    Beitrag

    Hello again, We have completed restoring the Schwarzwald II and it works very well and sounds excellent on FM. It needed all its black capacitors and a couple of electrolytics replacing, and its EM4, ECH81 and EF85 were also replaced. We checked the AM IF and it was still spot on at 472 kHz so realignment was not necessary. RF realignment likewise was unnecessary. As this model has only a 220v AC mains setting we had to fit a couple of resistors to drop the UK 230-240v mains voltage down to 220v…

    Hello, I am restoring a Schwarzwald WII AM/FM 7 valve radio which was recently imported into the UK from Germany. I have replaced all its SABA black capacitors all of which were leaky and a couple of valves and the set now works very well on FM but not so well on MW, LW and SW. So AM needs realignment and I have the alignment procedure in German, and Babel Fish manages to translate most of it into English but I am stuck on at least a couple of sentences. The first two lines 1. a) and b) read ...…
