I have confirmed it is not wound backwards. I looked at the pictures I took of the coils before I re wound them, and I made sure the new coil is wound exactly how the old one was. Exact same direction. I even double checked the connections to make sure the right wire is soldered on the right terminal. Everything is correct. I was searching for maybe a bad ground, but no luck there. I read that the rivet grounds on these radios get corroded over time, but mine are all grounding well. I’ve confirmed that the philco is possessed. There is nothing left for me to check….. I guess it’s time to sell it as a fully restored NON working radio
