I'm still working on the radio and I've come across a new problem and I'm not sure I can fix it.

There isn't much to listen to on the AM band. I'd really not giving it much thought till now that I've got the radio playing and trying to tune in stations. I ran through the AM stations in the car last night checking to see whats on and it's slim pickings.

Oh well, it's still fun to have this older radio working, even if there's not much to listen to. I guess I should look into a AM modulator so I can play my own stuff.
