philco 48-1283 wiring issue

I'm restoring a Philco 48-1283 and having a few issues. I have the schematic ( of the 48-1262) and mods to the 1283,but there are some inconsistencies especially in the actual wiring of the 35L6GT tube. However, I basically just recapped and replaced the resistors. The unit worked before; checked only as a test, so I know the tubes and wiring must have been ok. Now, in radio mode all I get is a hum UNTIL I turn off the power, then for a short few seconds I can clearly hear an AM station. Test points A and C all read high at ~265v, but I've checked the resistors and caps as specified in the diagnoistics. Any help would be appreciated. Icon_sad
