I am working on a 52-542 and after checking all tubes, coils and full recap I started alignment, first part was fine, adjusted all 4 slugs to 455 loud and clear signal but when i tried the ant./osc. at 1600 through a loop as per instructions I get nothing no matter what or where anything is adjusted. Through the antenna there is nothing but static across the dial. I have checked and rechecked everything but can not find any problems. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks, Todd
