Philco 40-130 with Lousy Reception
#11

Yes, should get a few AM stations, of course more at night, and you can also try another room, or turn set around (reception is directional when built in loop is used.) Not much of anything on the old "police band," used to get some tone signals which I found out sent signals to Utility water pumps, and I think that's all done by now.

Agree alignment is very important after restoration, but not everyone knows how to do this.
