I get 1.6v DC between pin 1 & 8. I swapped the 1LN5 tubes. I was able to peak both the upper and lower caps on 1st IF. 2nd IF doesn't seem to do much. I went ahead and did next step in alignment @ 1600kc then steps 3 and 4 at 1400kc. I do now get a local am broadcast station but have to have the set volume all the way up to hear it so things are looking up but not quite there yet....
