The 390ohm resistor tested at 415ohms, so ok. Ground looks to be good. Cleaned 1232 tube socket and pins but only made nominal difference to voltages. Tried a different 1232 tube and had no impact.
Tried doing alignment again as is, but can’t find signal anywhere on dial, whether setting signal generator at 580 or 1400. I do get some but not all stations in the area, but max volume at about 60%.
Will replace all tubes with tubes from other Philco 40-180 that I successfully aligned to see what happens.
