Well, I'm just a little disappointed. I have added the new coil winding, and all points on the coil measure correctly per the schematic. (.6 ohms between lugs 1 and 5) I wound the coil, exactly as I removed it, winding clockwise, (bottom facing), starting at the base.

Antenna clip to ground is now 32 Ohms. (was open prior to the coil repair)

All voltages on the 6A7 have remained the same.

The radio performs exactly as it did prior to surgery. Maybe two very faint signals, noise increasing as I climb the dial.

Going back to recheck wiring and new component values.

Any other thoughts?
