Ocsillator Help

[Apollo973]

Can you guys help me out? I don't know where the battery hookup on this oscillator is. I also don't know where the antenna hookup is. Thank you for your help. Here are the pictures since the pic up loader wasn't working for me. http://imgur.com/a/6IxvV

hi Apollo

that is just an AM or AM/FM tuning capacitor
its NOT an oscillator. it forms PART of an oscillator for a AM and possibly a FM receiver
it needs lots more components to go with it to make a receiver

here's a part of a receiver circuit showing your style of dual ganged capacitor

this is just the "front end" of the receiver showing the oscillator and first RF amplifier stages

cheers
