I recently acquired a Watterson model 527. It appears to be one of the last models they produced. I believe they may have been made by the Warwick Co. and branded as Wattersons. Either way it has a significant "motorboating" problem and I cannot seem to locate a schematic to troubleshoot with. All the tubes (std AA5 complement) check good with my Hickok 605 and the B+ is about 120 off the electrolytics. Any help tracking down a schematic as I do not see one under the Watterson schematic link. Great looking radio, just want to rectify the "motorboating", Any help would be greatly appreciated.
