Wires to oscillator are on right posts. Took before and after picture.

From resistor #10 the side that is connect to the coil and pin 5 of the 6A7. 3.5 ohms

Coil side of resistor 10 to the 800 pf that is connected to the coil. 64 ohms

Coil side of resistor 10 to pin 5 of 6A7. 3.3 ohms

Coil side of resistor 10 to 800 pf (side connected to pin 4 of 6A7) 214 K.

Also, a slight breakthrough. I found that if I connected the aerial to the grid (top) of the 6A7, I can tune in some stations. A lot of whistling and static. I can hear voices but can't distinguish what they're saying. That is with ear to speaker and volume all the way up.
Thanks for your assistance.

Thankyou for the kind words sir. I double checked it with my component tester and it read 2.7 ohms at .02mH.Stormlord5500 — 08:14 AM
