Measure the resistance from ground the the antenna post with the set unplugged and volume all the way up. Should show a low resistance like a few ohms. If it higher than that the small winding on the ant coil is open. Remove coil and rewind(easy). About 25t of 36G will work fine
Good luck
Terry

Terry,

Do you mean from the actual antenna connection point to chassis ground? Did that and got a reading (about 20,000 ohms) i.e.---the volume pot.
Best regards,
Kico
