Hi Andrefranc,

Great! Glad you figured it out. Yeah sometimes there is just enough gain that even with an open stage, the signal squeaks through, either by coupling or some other way.

As I had mentioned perviously, open coils are a fairly common problem on early Philco sets. Corrosion sets in between windings and causes the coil to open.

Congratulations, glad it's playing. Enjoy, it's a neat radio!

Gilbert
