Missed earlier your marked up schematic. High voltages on the RF tubes while low on the audio section. This leads to think the the electrolytic caps when replaced got wired wrong. Hard to say exactly but would reverify how the caps 58 and 61 are connected. Negative end of cap 61 should connect to the center tap of the power xformer. While on cap 58 the negative end connects to the chassis. Made my share of wiring errors.
