Looks like you nailed it, hooked up another speaker and got 60c hum went back and re soldered the braided leads and it worked. among the other problems this radio had it looks like a cold solder joint was the reason I'm more bald than I was before this. I get static and even a faint station but the ant coil I made was just a guess.
Now I have to strip and take data on the ant coil and make a more accurate coil.


Thanks for all the help!
