I'm getting used to the feel of egg on my face....

I'm ready to admit my embarrassing assumption that proved to be why the replacement IF can wasn't working with the clip leads. With an AM only radio and two knobs (besides the tuner), I figured it was off/on/volume and a separate knob for the tone control. WRONG! Studying the schematic closer I couldn't understand why one side of the "volume" control had nothing connected to it, when it clearly shows there should be. Then the light bulb went on...it was off/on/tone and a SEPARATE volume control! So with the volume control apparently turned all the way down it makes sense why the radio was silent! Lesson learned...try ALL the knobs before assuming the worst! The good news is the radio now plays great after an alignment, and that left over IF from the 1936 Crosley 516 was a perfect donor for the Kadette  Icon_thumbup
