[Hallicrafters] Update on SX-111 Tuning & Cores

[Bill Gerhold]

I decided to act like the engineer I really am (EE).  I said to myself maybe
the cores being out of alignment and reducing sensitivity is not the problem
it seems to be.

So, I pulled all the tubes and retested them.  Guess what, the 1st RF was
shorted!  This receive is now jumping off the table.  So, I am leaving the
coils and cores alone but, I leave them with new knowledge of their
construction and possible fixing for future reference.

Thanks for all the help from all the well informed amateur radio operators
on this forum.
