I re-did the oscillation coil and now get very low ohms across each.  I checked the other 2 coils and found the same.  I must be grounding the RF somehow.  However, that doesn't make sense because i get such a loud 175kc when i connect the SG to the antenna.   I can't get a signal beyond around 350kc - nothing above 600KC except when i clip on the SG and hear it regardless of the tuning capacitor. i think the RF coils are bypassed and i'm only getting the SG.  Looking at that i don't know how that is happening.
