Oh wow! Just found this thread.  Brings me back to early days on this phorum.  I did a 96 back in 2017.  Thread here:

Radio works good and actually seems to have a better high frequency response than some of my early superhets. Probably because the TRF tuning is less selective.

Thanks for the nostalgia, Mike!

I have eventually replaced the speaker and shot the video, which only shows the upper part of the dial as the hum is very strong at the lower part.

I will eventually move it out of the workshop: we have bulk pickup on 16 and I am counting on getting rid of a projection TV and freeing up some space.
