Howdy fellas -

In a continuing effort to educate myself on tube radio restoration and repair I've been reading Marcus and Levy's Elements of Radio Servicing.  Not having been formally trained in this field I've been searching for a comprehensive explanation of a radio signal path as it enters the antenna, flows through each tube and stage and finally out the speaker.  Is anyone aware of this type of reference article that I could study?  I'm struggling to identify the specific tube pins this path takes which is a fundamental skill I need to improve.    

Thanks and Merry Christmas,
Paul
