That last problem I mentioned (just noise through the mixer/oscillator) was just a big operator error...no problem and all is good. So I'm in the process of painting the dial backing plate. I lied about the color I'm using. It's actually Rustoleum Metallic Vintage Copper.
Once that's done I'll investigate the current draw through the 15k 2W resistor further and decide if there is really a problem. I'll also do some work on the shortwave to see if I can get that working better. But otherwise, I think this thing is close to reassembling and surprising my mom with it!
