Heathkit AR-1500 - problem with FM

I’ve got the 1813 that came in it and it tests good on continuity so will just keep it in there for now. Should have the NTE722 today or tomorrow. Will see what happens. Thanks
 
In my Heathkits, I have always left the 1813s alone, even when replacing the dial lamps with LEDs. In all these years, I believe I have only had one 1813 burn out.

Got the NTE722 and so far so good.
Was even shocked to see the stereo indicator light up when I tuned into a station
This thing sounds great.
thanks for the help. I would have never messed with that IC and this would have spent the rest of its life as just an amp
Dial face still dim but I don’t think it’s an electrical issue since all lamps seem bright. Will investigate
