Well, I aligned it, mostly IF and moved the pointer using the local 1160AM station and then my generator.
After that the was very little other trimmers did.

I have lots of stations on Bc, a few on Police, especially between 5 and 7MHz and very few on SW after dark, with a short wire for an antenna.

I will listen to it when assembled, now waiting for my rosin to come in to add traction to the cord.
But so far I am not impressed. It is not a sound I would admire. Very.....mediocre.
Maybe I'll sell it. Though maybe I'll leave it for the collection as the sole rep of this style.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
