I've got the 38S working however, I think I still have a problem. The RF
gain control has to be run wide open to hear anything and it is nowhere
near as sensitive as the receiver in my my Yaseau 900.

I have rewound T1 several times. It is now 2t primary, 17t secondary. I
do get two peaks when I tune TC1. I have also tried changing C4 to 10pf as
suggested by Jim, K8IQY. The sensitivity still seems low.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
