Finally got the .1 caps and installed them. Still no reception, so I poked around with the antenna wire and got 2 local stations with ant hooked to the 3rd RF at the tuning condenser. See photo. I guess that means the problem in between there and the ant connection Suspect the rewind on 2nd RF was not good enough. Any test to isolate it any closer?
Thanks for your help.
