Ok- the low volume has gone to no sound- other than the slight hum letting me know it is alive. I had had low volume for most stations, save for the really close ones(such is AM) but had a full AM range to choose from- all over the east coast apparently! Bu my middle SW band had very little on it, and the top SW band I have yet to hear do anything. I am wondering if it is a speaker issue, an amplifier issue, a vol. control issue or what! All the tubes glow properly, and most were replaced with good used or new, if not up to par on the Precision 610 tester.

I haven't checked the antenna coil yet. Ideas?
