There are resistors that have been put in parallel that should be in series (voltage divider), missing resistors, a large cap to ground from the grid of the output tube... lots of fun carp. This is going to be a lot of work.
not sure what is wrong with the radio but I was told the radio worked before it was stored for 15 years
