Thanks for the input Jeff, Yes, i cleaned the selector upon rebuild, and pretty much ruled that out.

So it comes down to my antenna..... The radio does have 3 terminals marked- A, D, and G. G is of course ground. Theres a factory jumper from G to D. I removed the jumper and the signal improved..

So, what would be an ideal antenna for this setup? (length etc.?)
I have an empty roof to work with. Not to mention my dad has a ZENITH transoceanic (h-500) that will need a similar antenna once its rebuilt. If i construct the proper antenna, then i will be able to rule out antenna and focus on tuning issues.

Thanks for the input..
Steve
