So I tried the "quick & easy thing first. I reversed the wires going to the tickler coil. When I do that I don't even get any static. It goes completely quite. So I believe that I have it wound correctly. I did notice another oddity...I have static and squealing on the high end of the dial. When I get to about 670KHz, the set goes quite. From 670 to 540, there is absolutely nothing. Turn the dial back towards the high end, and the static comes back...there are no shorts on the tuning cap.
