Philco 60 Squealing
#5

I'm pretty sure I now have the litz wire soldered. This did not make any difference. Back in April I rewound the secondary of the oscillator and because the radio did not receive stations. After the rewind it did but I didn't pay attention to what the reception was like. I then prepared the radio for cleaning and restoration over the summer. It has been sitting since then until now. As I have said the radio plays good on strong stations but squeals on weak stations. I have gone over it with a fine tooth comb using the advice from Chas. Radio still squeals so I am starting to suspect the oscillator secondary rewind. Wondering if I did it backwards. Can anyone verify how it is supposed to be wound? I'm pretty sure I have the number of turns correct.
