Thanks !
The Cx10 and Rx39 have been already replaced to no avail.
By IC8 are you refering to ICx08 ? it's a 4558 opamp.
btw, I now see that I had to replace Rx36 with a slightly different
value because even after the machine is warm enough, with the
original value the related VCO still cannot get tuned with the other
oscillators, not matter how you set the VCO tuning trimmers.
Thanks again.
