Hi,
i recapped tried to align but can only tune 1 strong station at the top frequency. if i try i can make 830 AM (strongest local station) come in, it's bearly perceptible at very low volume. I wonder whether one of the coils has a break. I can't decide which because i don't measure an open coil, the ohms are 5.6, 10 or 11. Maybe my alignment is bad but i've followed the schematic at 175kc etc. I hate to rewind a coil if i don't have to. Rich
