All back together and it still works!!! The wood blocks were in the radio when I open it up so back they went. The switch for using headphones was causing problems so is not in the circuit. Added a piece of wire to allow using a ext ant. Down to 2 local stations now both about 20 miles away power of the stations around 1100 watts. Using ext ant app 25 feet in length can pick up stations 100+ miles away in the daytime.
