41-295 I.F. harmonics across dial
#2

You didn't do anything wrong... sometimes it just happens. The image (not harmonic) at 590 is the primary image for 1500 (1500 - 910), and a strong station (doesn't even have to be a 50K station, we had one in Caldwell, ID that ran 1000W at 1490 that used to clobber my favorite station out of Boise on 580) will show up in both spots on the dial because it simply overloads the input tuned circuit (antenna loop plus tuner). Sometimes, you can re-orient the radio to minimize this effect, if the two stations' towers are not in a direct line from you. As far as 1045, all I can think of is two strong stations in the area "beating" and producing that frequency.
