But why will it only receive that one station? Its around 1200 on AM. My big Zenith console just barely tunes in that channel but its crystal clear on that Philco. Not even my modern sets will tune it in. When I hook up an antenna it wont work. Only when i touch metal to that pin. The volume control still works too. The station blasts forth with the volume all the way down and still gets louder. Theres probably a simple explanation that my newbie brain cant quite figure out. Icon_confused
