<I found one of your posts from 2011 about the same issue. I just checked the antenna coil. From the antenna terminal to the ground terminal the coil is showing open. Radio un-plugged and volume control all the way up.
That won't stop it from working, if you hook the ant to the 77 grid cap but the vc won't have any effect.
Sounds like the osc is ok but not sure abt the pin #'s. I measure from chassis gnd to the pin than has the mica cap/resistor connected to it. I think some of the later runs have a gnd pin connected the coil's mounting bracket.
Do you have a signal generator??

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
