I wouldn't say for sure that it tunes, it's just when I insert 18 MHz from the generator, I can hear it, although it is softer than expected. When I put my finger on the tip of the 6J8G tube, it is strong, as if the unit is functioning properly. I did not track the SW dial to verify performance, only at 18 MHz.
When I perform this same test on AM at 1400 kHz and 580 kHz, I get nothing. No faint audio, and the finger at the tip of the 6J8G does not make any difference.
IF at 455 works as expected. Presets are all strong as if the tuner is functioning properly.
