Today I added two additional stages of IF amplification. This added 30 db to the receiver’s total gain. That helped a lot. I also discovered that Germanium (1N34A) diodes work a LOT better as AM detectors than do silicon diodes. This receiver is starting to sound decent. Currently listening to the VORW program on WRMI Miami.
