morzh - Thank you - Terry you too have been a super big help as I troubleshoot to find my issue. Before I powered anything up I tested all tubes and the only bad ones were the rectifier 5X4 and a 6J5. But in the course of my repair work I think I shorted one the 6L6s so I just got two replacement ones. I have not retested all the tubes since I began powering things up so I shuld probably try them all again.
My audio is operational as I hear buzz when i touch the grids. I do not have a tracer, but I do have a signal generator and and can use my output meter. I have a signal counter to make sure the signal generator is aligned correctly. I guess after I check the tubes again, I will need to find the signal stops.
Thanks for all the pointers guys - it is very helpful and keeps me from feeling this project is over my head!!
