Pith, radios like this do not like a "closed" loop antenna, they want a "long wire" connected to the antenna terminal. Ground is somewhat optional.
When you are doing an alignment you should be listening to the tone from your signal generator (constant), not listening to radio programming that has a variable volume level! Much easier to peak the various adjustments. Start @ 260KC for IF then follow directions to peak the high and low ends of the band using your signal generator with modulation at the appropriate frequencies, not a radio station.
