Used a short piece of wire for an antenna, and had quite a goodly number of SW Foreign Broadcast stations pulled, very loud.
OK, maybe it's time to re-assemble the dial and start alignment. Need the dial assembled for that.
The middle band I guess is the police, right? As in all my other radios with it, loud hum at the leftmost and nothinfg much on the right side of the scale. Normal, I guess.
