HI Bob,
   Thanks for the pdf link. I was getting bogged down trying to get the file the other way.
     Tonight I put a wire coil inside the antennae and tried to slowly move the signal  generator up and down the frequencys.  Nothing, but, I could jam 455 khz through it. I think you might be right about the coils.  Time to pull out the chassis and verify the bad news.
  Thanks for the advice,
   Steve
