491ton,

Thank you for sharing your experience. I am glad that you were able to get your radio issue resolved. Unfortunately, mine doesn't appear to be as simple of a fix. I already have an excellent reproduction antenna. I believe it was from Chev's of the 40's. The radio worked perfectly for almost a year. Then started the static, that I described in my original post. I even went out and purchased a inexpensive universal antenna, to use to test for a bad antenna. The reception was just as bad. The oldies station that I was listening to, isn't the most powerful station. I have since tuned it to a stronger station. While you can hear the new station better, it is still not nearly as strong and clean a signal as it used to be. Thank you again for taking time to share your experience.
