Received my package from Fedex and all parts have been installed. I brought up the radio slowly and it does work but there is alot of squealing on strong stations but I can get it to tune to a point where the squeals stop and I can understand what is being said. I am missing a shield for the oscillator/detector tube though which I'm sure will help if it was installed so I'll be looking for shield for it.
