Gentlemen... I have radio!

I followed the suggestion that Tubology so graciously offered about following the circuit and checking off as I go. Well, there ya go... I found one more stupid mistake. A .05 cap had been in the wrong place.. Voila, I have a lot more reception, less hum and less of that weird tap thing on the 6J7. It is still there but about 5 x less. Although, I still have to go without the 1M ohm resistor I mentioned last post or there is very little volume.

I'll keep going and see what I come up with. SW is a bit weak, but it's nice to have AM!
