It was bugging me quite a lot. So, moved the SG-8 out of the way and fired up the recently repaired and sorted Philco 077 signal generator. As I mentioned, this is what this radio would have been alligned with back in the day. It has a very nice clean output wave form unlike the raspy mess of the SG-8. The allignment went very smoothly and everything did what was expected. I checked the sensitivity across the band and there is a slight drop off at the very bottom around 550 khz.

What is the best way to get to that 4 meg resistor in the IF can? The can is rivited to the chassis and I am not thrilled about drilling them out. What are the symptoms of it being bad?

On the grill cloth. Let's wait until the new cloth arrives. The stuff in it is awfull.
