Just acquired a Philco 42-327, Code 121 and haven't had it long enough to complete the required capacitor replacement, but I have checked all the tubes and found them to test very strong. Someone has already replaced the main electrolytics, but left it at that. The radio fired right up with all the stations in the right place on the dial, but all at very low volume. I quickly tweaked the IF stages just in case someone had mis-tuned them, but they appeared to be right on. I know that the radio is rated at 1 watt output, but this is way below that. Never ran across that particular malady before. Any ideas?

When I do get it working properly, I'm curious if anyone has information on how to change the output stage to provide more volume. I know it would require a bit more work, but I would really like to replace the 50L6 with something with more output.
