Hello All,
Well, after a lot of thought and trial and error, success at last!  I spent several hours this afternoon in restringing the tuning condenser and tuning knob.  It was not easy and I am not sure I could describe just what I did to someone else on the process, but it is working as it should with all the original components.  Just a note to Radioroslyn; I appreciate your offer to help, but could never get a strong enough cell signal to make the call from my shop.  Thanks again though.

Now on to other things; such as taking care of the electrolitics, and any out of spec resistors, and getting some fuses installed.  Hopefully when I get the condenser back in it will play as well or better than it did when I started.  Looking forward to the rest of the project.
