Thank you Ed! I hope you get that 16X up and running, as that is a gorgeous set and worthy of your efforts!!! In all of the radios I've brought back to life, miraculously, I've never had half the problems some members on this site have had to deal with, which is very odd, considering these radios mostly seem to seek me out at random and are in all manner of disrepair. This project has been an odyssey it seems, and I am incredibly happy with the results. Got my dialface on and did a crude alignment (Oh, what I wouldn't do for a signal generator!!!) Yesterday morning I pulled about a dozen shortwave stations in on SW1, and about 6 on SW2. That was the proverbial "cherry on top".
