Squealing problem has been solved. Thanks to a post on this radio over on ARF, I found that the output transformer had been replaced at some point and they had reversed the primary leads. This led to the radio having positive feedback instead of negative. What actually clued us in was by grounding the bottom side of the volume control the squealing stopped. Removing the ground with the radio powered up brought the squeal back. Reversing the primary leads solved it.
