Charging Problems.....

I just recently bought my 1984 GSL-SE...yay! But I'm having a few problems. My biggest concern is that it chooses to charge sometimes and not other times. It usually charges for the first 10 mins in the morning when its cold and intermittently throughout the day. My fuseable link isn't it cuz all the connections are good. Thas what my last RX7's problem was. I dont think its my alternator cuz when it does charge its right at 14 volts. Someone said it could be my ignition switch. Is this true or what do you think??? Any help would be great. Please PM me.
