That era of radio was called a “regen” set where there were three knobs to align in order to receive stations, other knobs to adjust tube filament voltage. It can be frustrating so my advice is there’s a gentleman here on RUclips channels called glassinger who builds his own tubes and they work! Watch his channel and contact him for help. He’s the highest knowledgeable person you can contact but hurry as he’s as old as your radio! ( approach with open mind please).
I have seen alot of his videos. Very knowledgeable. The radio club I belong to is currently trying to locate me a ux120 tube. It is proving to be a challenge. I won't be going after another Radiola again unless it already has its tubes.
