Stuck on non-receiving Silvertone 4769
#1

For reference here is the schematic:

https://worldradiohistory.com/hd2/IDX-S ... e-0054.pdf

And the component layout:

https://worldradiohistory.com/hd2/IDX-S ... e-0055.pdf

Set has been recapped, and the audio output section is working strong, but I'm not able to receive anything other than static. Not even a faint hint of a station.

I get a signal on the antenna terminal and on each grid cap.

For voltages I'm getting:

5Y3 : 392
6V6 : P 270 , S 286
6B6 : P 88 , G -4.9
6K7 (IF) : P 287 , S 105 , G -5.5
6L7 : P 286 , S 100 , G -5.5
6J6 : P 71
6K7 (RF) : P 285 , S 100 , G -5
