Nice Burt! After a normal alignment, as a final step, set the BFO at 12 and tweek the top slug of the second IF can till you just get oscillation. It is possible to get Q Multiplier action on AM before full IF oscillation with good parts.
I restored a Hallicrafters S-120. It was a pain in the neck, but a good learning experience. Not their best receiver by far. I'll never own one again. 73 Paul AA1SU
Turn the BFO full clockwise and use the bandspread, tune in from the left in USB, and from the right with LSB. It works decently. Here's a video I made with one I had rebuilt with all new caps and resistors. ua-cam.com/video/vnsLLlAy3Ck/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared

I buy them cheap and sell them not as cheap.
