Have you connected it to any sort of antenna? Even a 5 to 20 foot length of wire should help considerably.

Note: the 0-100 scale relates to the % that the variable capacitors are "closed"... The tuning range should be the standard AM broadcast band, with the higher frequency stations likely appearing near the "0%" end, and tuning to the lower frequency stations as the capacitors are fully meshed (100%).

EDIT add : If you are hearing the religious station at the dial position shown in the photo (20%) it would be near the high frequency end of the dial... possibly WFIC 1530 kHz in Collinsville.
