Aaran, I got this set working beautifully on broadcast and SW. It pulls in stations crisply on SW, even without an external antenna. I much appreciate your help. I do need to replace the grommets supporting the variable cap to raise it enough so that the dial pointer no longer hits the bottom of the dial cover, then do some work on the cabinet finish. But that is all that's left. I'm very happy with this set. Thanks again.
