SUCCESS!!!!!

I put the oscillator coil back in and connected it up. Then I powered up the radio and within a few seconds I started hearing static. I turned the dial a little ways up to 610 and in came the local sports talk station loud and clear. I still have a little work to do (alignment, and possibly some work will be needed on the shadow meter), but I am thrilled to have this radio playing again. And then of course I have to decide what to do with the cabinet (if anything).

I just listened to an episode of my favorite OTR show "Richard Diamond, Private Detective" on the '19, and it was great.

I want to say a sincere "thank you" to everyone that shared their knowledge or gave their advice. I truly couldn't have done it without you.

Thanks again,
Jon
