its alive!..I poked around it with a signal generator. i was able to hear signal coming thru the grids of the detector/oscillator tube, putting problem between antenna and detector. I found plates of the variable condenser were shorted to ground and upon further inspection found the wire from the frame of the variable condenser chafing against the hole in as it went thru the chassis. now works great thanks exray and tex for your help!
