Good morning friends!!!
I'm very happy because, finaly, music heard!!!!!
It seems that this little black wire, twisted on the white one (whitch never found on radio but clearly shown on schematic) is quite critical for the radio to have reception or not.

At first i had reception at SW and after a thoroughly cleaning of the selector switch, BC is also at speaker!!!!!!!!

I want to THANK you all for your help!!!!

Have a nice day!!!

Konstantinos, SV2HWH
