Frankenstein Radio Nightmare

It was in a nightmare that this radio became a warning. A warning of mismatched components, stray capacitance and electromagnetic interference. But warnings are only as effective as the observer is compliant. There would be no compliance, only the catering to the madness that dwells within the engineer. And may God have mercy on his soul. Queue the lightning and thunder.

My previous interactions with Copilot made it apparent that LLMs are babbling parrots with large vocabularies. I would continue my vacuum tube radio journey by asking what unusual topologies fit the 1920s. Too many answers mean too few anchors to begin a project, so I decided to go the route of building with parts I already have. When deciding to build bland or tricked-up, the course would be to add the bland options, lots of them until the dials and switches were more functional than the radio itself would be.

And now the Monster:

But what is wrong with this eloquent schematic. The lines are clear and color coded. The circuit is divided for easy of reading and build. But this is a Frankenstein build, so all beginnings must start with a corpse.
