Hi Jonathan,
The trf radio has no IF's or avc. It amplifies the rf on the whole band through- out the radio to the detector/first audio amplifier. That is why you get "blaring" on strong signals and have to turn up the volume on weak signals (no avc). Have you recaped the radio yet? A good recapping might be in order. You can find the schematic here. http://www.nostalgiaair.org/PagesByModel...029582.pdf
Hope this helps
