Default Re: Marconi 1400 birthday present

John . Thanks for your very kind offer I will PM you now.
Nick . The capacitors you mentioned have all been changed. I have also changed the valve you suggested. I got a very minor improvement.
Now the big difference . The local distance control as you also mentioned. It was fully turned to one end. I fully turned it the opposite end and I now have a good acceptable contact on 405 . It hasn’t made any change on 625 . I know pots idealy shouldn’t be fully one end but it works.
I will wait to i get these parts from John.
Thank you both and everyone who has helped me so far. Andy
