Good idea on the swamping resistors... I did confirm that mine did not have the values for narrow bandwidth. Another list member pointed out early and late-model 75A-2s had different bandwidth performance (early favoring AM), so perhaps different values were used.

To widen out the bandwidth you can put additional
fairly low value resistors across the i.f. cans.  If
you look in the manual you will see a note to remove
the swamping resistors to narrow the bandwidth.
Therefore, adding resistors in parallel with the
existing resistors should broaden the bandwidth.

The widest bandwidth is 4 kHz (crystal filter out,
just the tuned circuits in the IF stages) and I would
like to add the capability for a wider choice for
Hi-Fi AM reception.  Anyone know of any articles on
such a modification?  Maybe in the context of
"updating" the 75A-2 or 3 to mechanical filters?  Or
have any of your own ideas?
