Ok, first a reply to codefox:

I unhooked everything and tested the fins on the rotor against the fins on the stator on each section and very slowly turned it and got no continuity so that's good. I turned on another radio in the house and checked the AM stations on it and it also didn't receive stations on the lower bands so I''m thinking maybe it's just a reception issue.

To Raleigh:

I found a modern replacement for it on Amazon. I will say that your method is probably easier and cheaper to do but I wanted to go a little more "proper" on mine so I bought a replacement here: http://www.amazon.com/CE-Manufacturing-4...B004HGU9L8 . The can is the exact same size as the original. The problem with this (besides it being slightly expensive) is that instead of it being the type with the negative wire, the can itself was the negative so I had to find a way to insulate it from the chassis. I bought a phenolic plate made for these cans and did some modifying to the chassis to make it fit and bolted it in there. I cut a couple of holes in the chassis for two of the four negative leads to fit down in (big enough so they wouldn't touch the chassis) and two small holes to bolt the plate on. The result is as you see in the photo.
