Welcome to the wonderful world of hallicrafters!!! During the winter months in the morning I can pick up AM 820 out of Tampa distance little over 200 miles some were between 800-860. If you just look at the band spread knob funny the station will play hide and seek. There are 2 different marks of the S38E the orginal C16 220pf markII C16 82pf I have no idea why. Search Beitmans look for Makearadio.com/beitmans.  For some reason I can not attach a dejv file to the phorum. Tracking on these things was never great from the factory, it is just a AA5 with extra coils.  David
