46-480 Power Transformer Vibrates
#6

Thanks codefox but this one has always worked well enough where it's at. I don't do much FM work.

I remember having trouble with this radio when I built it and the biggest problem was the Loctal tube pins and sockets. I can't find anything else wrong at this time so I cleaned all the tube pins again and even used a torch tip cleaner to clean the sockets. I'm still just getting static. What AM stations I was getting are gone. Nothing but static now.

Still waiting for an answer on the copper loop cabinet antenna.
