You don't need a fancy radio. Don't you have an FM radio kicking about? What kind of FM radio do you have?

Tube model? That should work in a pinch. What does it look like? Model number?

It doesn't have to be fancy. You may hear the silent carrier as you tune to it.

Right now we a just fishing for the local oscillator. Use as your reference the radio stations I indicated and the oscillator should be right next to the 92.9 KHz low power station in Philly. It is probably well off from that. Just connect the TV antenna terminal with the set on channel 4 directly to the radio antenna and tune until you hear what would be like a silent radio station.
