While waiting on the new speaker, I put a 1.5k 10w resistor in parallel with the field coil (5.9k) of the speaker that came with the set. It did get all of my voltages where they needed to be. So I was pretty excited about that. I assume now that it is all out of alignment. So I grabbed Rider 7/7-78 to see if I could get her aligned. The IF was off a little. But I was able to get the 260 K.C to come in loud and clear using the procedure outlined. Its when I went to the next step where things didn't work. I connected my generator to the antenna post, set it to 1500 K.C, and the dial of the set to 150...nothing. For grins, I tried the 550 K.C, tuned to 55 on the set. Again, nothing. Could it be that far out?

I am using an old Heathkit SG-8. Those are usually a bit off. So I put my HP scope across it to be sure I'm right on the correct frequency. For grins I through my frequency counter on there. Its dialed it. Either I'm doing something wrong. Or it really is way out of wack!
