On the tuning cap there is a wire connected to one of the lugs on the top but is not connected to anything at the other end. Was this some type of gimmick to improve reception like Ron referred to in http://philcoradio.com/phorum/showthread...8#pid47468 ? I can't figure it out from the schematic ( http://www.nostalgiaair.org/Resources/674/M0013674.htm ). Here's a pic of the wire in question -- it curls in a few loops within the yellow oval and is attached at the yellow arrow) . Advice on what to do with this wire??
