Ok tried alignment.. Much better.. But noticed the Low end of band is very deaf..from about 600-900 Khz.. It is working since I can inject a signal from SG But levels is very high in order of -20 Dbm..Also noticed that if I put my finger on the RF tube it helps a lot.. Same thing on SW band Signal from Generator can hear but takes a higher signal..

Maybe weak RF tube? The Antenna coil checked out OK.. Not open..

Any clues??
