the eico 324 is a recent buy that I recapped and made a cord from a cable and connected red/black alligator clips to the end with one side having the .022 cap in series. the signal comes out loud and strong but I believe only thru the Eico not the cord. Clipping it to the working radio seems to make the signal stronger but it maybe only because I ground it. I can tune out the motorboating but I can't find any frequencies adjusting the trimmers. i'm sure that exercise is just a random stab in the dark. I received the book How to Repair Old-time radios and I really like the approach. this will help me with missing background information. I've reviewed the possible "open" capacitors and can't find any. I checked the tone wiring and it think it's correct in that it grounds for both settings and the tone works. I am getting "radio air" but no stations. Maybe one of my resistors was replaced with the wrong value? Rich
