Roger/Steve, well I had wired the bakelite cap 8035-D wrong and the illustration showed me the correct way. Now I have volume control but it only plays the putt-putt of motorboating. I had the tuning capacitor at 460 hz and found I could "tune" the motorboating on the back 2nd I.F. to higher frequencies and faster or no sound. I still cannot inject a audio signal but I put the alligator clip on my am test radio and the tone is loud and clear. I have Joseph Carr's Old Time Radios and I see there are several possibilities. At least I have sound and something resembling a "known" problem. I think that's progress thanks to you. Thanks, Rich
