Gary, if I’m understanding this right, your terminal 2 of coil #1 is going to ground according to what you did. Doing that effectively by passes the primary of coil #2. Then terminal 3 of coil #1 is going to the grid of the 6A8G but terminal 4 you say is going to R17, effectively bypassing the secondary of coil #2. In doing that, you have no way of getting a signal from the Ant. terminal to the 6A8G. Coil #1 isn’t there and coil #2 is bypassed so no signal being induced in coil #2. Hopefully if you get a good band selector switch and a coil #1, things will work!
