This afternoon, I hooked up the speaker connector, tested all seven tubes (only had to replace one - a 7C6), connected my temporary in-basement antenna, and fired it up.
It sounds good, and is receiving signals on all but one of its five bands. Band 4, the 25-31 meter band (9.3 to 12 mc) is dead - no sound, nothing.
But it is nice to hear my SSTRAN playing music through the 42-730.
