I have been useing the original antenna for the radio when playing and testing. I am going to clean the tuner again. I noticed if I tap on the top of the chassis above the tuner cap that it loses the station but I am starting to think that maybe when I do these things the tuner is just moving a very small bit and thats why I lose the station. I am doing more testing... Icon_e_wink
