I am working on a 1938 38-2. The recap and resistors are done. The tubes are all good. I have audio. Filament voltage to all tubes reading 6.5-6.6 volts. However, I have not taken the RF unit bottom shield back off to check there. I think it may be an oscillation problem. I wanted to ask the more learned folks here if you all know of any common problems I may be able to look for as well to add to my trouble shooting list? Thanks!
