Rickd....I had to make a quick trip out of town and had not been able to check what you had suggested... your suggestions were spot on. The mica on two of the three padders had cracked because I over torqued them. I had them apart and cleaned everything and they were not falling apart when I reinstalled them. But they sure were over tightened because they fell apart when I backed off the adj nut. Replaced them and low and behold up she came. Just finished reinstalling tuning hardware and did a little tweaking with sig gen. Listening to reruns of last weeks Rushbo on my first FrankenPhilco. Thank you for your suggestions and time.
