Philco 60 Antenna Coil
#25

That Worked. I can tune 600, but the upper end will now tune around 1300, (with the RF Gen set at 1400). If I tune to 1400 and go back to 600, it's back down around 500, (RF Gen set at 600).

I'm doing this by turning the rear cap (circled in yellow). The directions indicate that I should be rotating the forward cap, (blue).  Turning the forward cap does nothing at any frequency.

Gotta be getting close.

I take it, that by hearing these signals through the antenna, through all of the stages, that the radio should be working? Still only receiving one super strong local station out of Boston with lots of static.
