I barely get one weak AM station (and probably no SW) until I put a test lead on the stator and gradually touch a few of the connections and coils under the chassis that head back to the antenna connections, then I get a strong signal and a few other stations. Anything forward, I get good audio tone with a signal tracer. The coils under the tuning condenser is pretty congested and before I pull it out and check coils, has anyone else had the same issue?

Any suggestions where to start, look for, or if you've had a similar issues would be welcome. I'm new to this section of the radio.
