If you have a good circuit design, of course. There are folks here who can
help you out very much in getting it right.

Let me clarify things a little. My intent, since the radio is not
functional, was to use the variable cap and associated coils (tank
circuit?), without any power applied. This would be 'the circuit'.
ANTENNATANK CIRCUITRECEIVER. The remainder of the radio would be 'out
of the circuit'.

Original post: Evaluate using non-functional SW receiver (variable cap and
coils, only) as an antenna tuner or preselector. No amplification.
