Please help with the Philco 71B, my first time trouble shooting.
#5

Well I know that I am not missing a coil. At first, right after restoration, I was able to pick up several stations that would come in, then they would disappear and then come back in again. When I put my finger on the grid cap of the 36 tube (Det. Osc.) stations would come in loud and clear. Now if I put my finger on that very same place I don't get anything. The radio only produces a bunch of loud crackles and pops. If I put my finger over the R.F. grid cap or I.F. I don't get anything were'as right after restoration I was able to pick up stations when doing such a gesture.

I also tested the 1st I.F. Transformer coil and here is what I got.

If any of you have worked on a 71 and can help me out that would be great. I have done everything I know how to, and that is not a lot for being an amateur restorer.

Here is a schematic off Nostalgia air. Hope it helps. Thank you all for the help.
