Not sure what you mean by the grid circuit, which is the VFO tank and two
coupled windings (grid of final, and neutralizing of final). The VFO is working
fine, the note is very good, and frequency is about where it should be.

Good suggestion. C110a and C110b, both 0.006 uF mica. Maybe they are
destroyed but usually mica last a long time. I'll have to shunt them with new
ones.
