Terry, thanks for the input. Yes, the radio is working and also has plenty of volume. I do believe I do have an alignment issue though. I found that if I touch or barely move the wire running from the plate of the Det-Osc tube to the IF primary condenser #7 the station will cut out. Not much movement is needed with a wooden dowel to make this happen. The compensation condenser was also missing the adjustment nut and insulating washer. I found a nylon washer and nut to fit but I'm not sure how bad my alignment is. See in the photo on the left side. Also I'm concerned as to how warm the #11 and #9 resistors are getting. I may abandon the "fake dogbone" idea.
