When I first pulled the oscillator there was enough green that I unwound the tickler coil and rewound it with 34 AWG wire. In fact I did it twice and never got the results I wanted.
 When I did the oscillator on a Philco 60b I used the same gauge wire (34) and got it working right away. I just followed Crist Rigotti’s posts and the restoration went smoothly. Not so with this bugger. 
I’ll get back to the oscillator once I get the antenna coil right. Baby steps.
