You may also be able to drape it over the antenna connector. Try that first without the antenna connected.

Let's rule out the antenna. Do you have a signal source to fed to the antenna input? It has to be very low strenghth around 50 uvolts (S9). If you feed too strong a signal, you may overload the front end.

Hi Bill

Start by checking that the toroid leads are not shorting together. You can use a toothpick to gentle spread them apart.

I decided that you guys are having so much fun that I took out #67 to give it a whirl.?

When powering up I get a very loud buzzing in the ear phones.? So, I power down, remove all external pigtails and then add them one at a time.? It seems to happened when adding the antenna to the circuit board.

Forgive me for asking here but I have little experience with the very small components.

Where to start looking??
