New to Forum- 47-1230 is my 1st Restoration
#32

Yes I have had the speaker plugged in Terry, thanks for asking. Last night before going to bed I tested every pin on every tube per the Samsphoto fact sheet, about 70 in all. I wrote them all down and will post the ones that are way off when I get home later. I think I have a few spread tube sockets though because several seemed pretty loose and when I would touch them with my probe I would either get hum or static.
I plan to investigate each circuit that appears to be way off to see if I wired something incorrectly. After soldering about 300 connections it’s certainly possible I did something else stupid. No I did not get any stations when I hooked up the loop antenna. Thanks for your help and patience with me.i did notice one of the square cans on top is missing an adjustment screw. I’ll post a picture of that later. Also I noted that I will need to get a signal generator in order to set Thisbe up? Anything I need to know before I buy?
