Just an additional note.

Not sure about how to connect the antenna and ground, I did a voltage check. I found that I have what I believe to be a ground loop. I measured about 46 VAC from any antenna connection (Red, Black and Ground) to the outlet cover screw. That I am sure isn't right. Where would this 46 VAC be coming from? The radio does work, on both BC and SW but I am not too happy measuring 46VAC from chassis and the antenna connections to ground.

Help!

Those are details better left to the ones who know. Maybe you disconnected the wrong end of the wire.RodB — 06:22 PM
