[Heathkit] more SB 303

[Greg Mijal]

Yes

Replace the filter with a 100 - 200 ohm resistor and see if the radio will 
run AM in that mode.
If the filter is bad the radio should work ok with the resistor in place of 
the filter.
Check the AM detector circuit too.
You did ohm out the mode switch right?
Glad it's getting better for you.
